Defect and consequence
Defect: 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.
Why it matters: In the event of a fire, if the fire extinguisher does not function properly, it can increase the risk of injury.
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.

Defect and consequence
Defect: DS Corp DBA Crossroads RV (Crossroads) is recalling certain model year 2016-2017 Hill Country and Sunset Trail recreational trailers manufactured May 13, 2015, to April 18, 2016 and equipped with an outside kitchen compartment. In the affected trailers, the inside range burners may be extinguished unintentionally when the outside kitchen compartment door is opened.
Why it matters: With the burners extinguished, the propane may continue to flow, creating a build up of propane gas, which in the presence of an ignition source, can increase the risk of a fire and/or explosion.
Remedy
Crossroads has notified owners, and dealers will install a piece of trim to cover the air gap behind the inside range to the outside kitchen, free of charge. The recall began on June 9, 2016. Owners may contact Crossroads customer service at 1-855-226-7496. Crossroad's number for this recall is 16-254.
