Reported November 22, 2017 · Keystone RV Company

Potentially affected: 1,205,997 vehicles

Repair completion: 2.15% (latest rate the manufacturer reported to NHTSA; dataset updated November 3, 2026)

Keystone campaign 17-307 · Owners notified January 15, 2018

Defect description

Keystone RV Company (Keystone) is recalling various 2003-2018 Crossroads, Dutchmen, and Keystone recreational trailers equipped with Kidde Plastic-Handle or Push Button 'Pindicator' Fire Extinguishers. A list of the affected trailer models is available at: https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/rcl/2017/RMISC-17V755-5127.pdf. These extinguishers may become clogged, preventing the extinguisher from discharging as expected or excessive force may be needed to activate the extinguisher. Additionally, in certain models, the nozzle may detach from the valve assembly with enough force that it could cause injury and also render the product inoperable. For a full list of the affected fire extinguisher models visit: https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/rcl/2017/RMISC-17E062-5427.pdf

Safety consequence

In the event of a fire, if the fire extinguisher does not function properly, it can increase the risk of injury.

Manufacturer remedy

Keystone will notify owners and instruct them to contact Kidde for a replacement fire extinguisher, free of charge. The recall began on January 15, 2018. Owners may contact Keystone customer service at 1-574-535-2100, or Kidde customer service toll-free at 1-855-262-3540, or online at www.kidde.com and click on "Product Safety Recall" for more information.

The affected vehicles may be equipped with a rear window that has a sticker labeling it as an emergency exit sticker. However, this window may be partially blocked by the rear ladder and was not intended to be a secondary emergency exit.

Safety consequence

In the event of an emergency, occupants could try to escape through the rear window, but would not be able to. This delay in their escape may increase the risk of injury.

Manufacturer remedy

Keystone has notified owners, and dealers will remove the emergency exit sticker, free of charge. The recall began on August 17, 2015. Owners may contact Keystone customer service at 1-866-425-4369. Keystone's number for this recall is 15-233.

ODI #10953861

Incident: October 21, 2016 · Filed: February 10, 2017

I WAS TAKING MY FIFTH WHEEL FROM MY HOUSE AND PUTTING IT IN TO STORAGE, ABOUT 4 MILES AWAY. I NOTICED WHEN ARRIVING, MY FIFTH WHEEL CAMPER WAS LEANING TO THE RIGHT. I CHECKED UNDER THE CAMPER AND NOTICED THE RIGHT REAR LEAF SPRING WAS NOT IN THE REAR HANGER BRACKET AND WAS LODGED UP INSIDE THE FRAME. I ALSO NOTICED RUBBING TO THE RIGHT REAR TIRE DUE TO THE SUSPENSION SYSTEM / LEAF SPRING. I USED THE HYDRAULIC LEVELING SYSTEM AND A PRY BAR AND HAMMER TO GET THE LEAF SPRING BACK IN TO THE REAR HANGER BRACKET. I THEN INSTALLED A HIGH TENSION BOLT I PURCHASED FROM FASTENAL TO GET IT TO A RV DEALERSHIP ABOUT 15 MILES AWAY. THE RV DEALER SERVICE DEPT. INSTALLED A NEW LIPPERT BOLT. THE ROADS FROM MY HOUSE TO THE STORAGE UNIT ARE OF VERY GOOD CONDITION AND A FEW TURNS FROM STREET TO STREET. I WAS DRIVING NO MORE THAN 45 MPH. I AM WONDERING WHAT DAMAGE MIGHT HAVE OCCURRED IF I WERE ON THE INTERSTATE TRAVELING AT A HIGHER RATE OF SPEED AND THIS LIPPERT BOLT OR ANOTHER OF THE ELEVEN HAPPENS TO SHEAR.
