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.

ODI #10810889

Incident: December 15, 2015 · Filed: December 17, 2015

DASH HAS HEATED WHILE SITTING IN BRIGHT SUN LIGHT AND NOW THE DASH HAS A REFLECTIVE SHEEN THAT IS SEEN CLEARLY ON THE SURFACE OF THE WINDSHIELD. THE REFLECTION IS EXTREMELY DISTRACTING IN ALL TYPES OF WEATHER CONDITIONS MAKING DRIVING THIS VEHICLE A SAFETY CONCERN. NORMALLY A SUBARU OF THIS AGE IN OUR FAMILY WOULD HAVE WELL OVER 150,000 MILES ON IT, HOWEVER DUE TO OUR SAFETY CONCERNS THIS VEHICLE ABSOLUTELY HAS BEEN DRIVEN ONLY 35,000 MILES. DEALERS WILL NOT REPLACE THE DASH SO CAR NOW SITS INSIDE A BARN.
