I DROVE MY CLASS A MOTORHOME UP MY DRIVEWAY AFTER DUMPING MY GREY WATER TANK. I WENT TO EXIT THROUGH THE ONLY DOOR AND IT WOULD NOT OPEN NO MATTER WHAT I DID. I HAD TO CRAWL OUT OF A WINDOW TO GET OUT NEARLY INJURING MYSELF. IT HAS BEEN 6 HOURS AND I HAVE REPEATEDLY TRIED TO OPEN THE DOOR FROM THE OUTSIDE AND IT WILL NOT OPEN. HAD THERE BEEN A FIRE OR EMERGENCY IT WOULD HAVE BEEN A REAL PROBLEM. I BELIEVE IT IS A TRIMARK LOCK. *TR

REFERENCE: REPORT RECEIPT DATE: MAR 17, 2005 NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 05V092000 COMPONENT(S): TRAILER HITCHES I PURCHASED A USED COACHMEN MIRADA MOTORHOME ON APRIL 23, 2013. AFTER PICKING UP THE MOTORHOME, I CHECKED FOR RECALLS AND FOUND THAT THERE WAS ONE ON THE "HITCH BRACKET ASSEMBLY". IN CONTACTING THE DEALER I WAS INFORMED THAT THE RECALL HAD BEEN COMPLETED AND THAT I COULD CALL COACHMEN FOR CONFIRMATION. WHEN I CALLED COACHMEN THEY STATED THAT THEY HAD NOT TALKED TO ANYONE AT THE DEALER AND COULD NOT CONFIRM IF MY UNIT HAD BEEN CHECKED AND/OR REPAIRED. THEY STATED THAT FOREST RIVER RV PURCHASED COACHMEN RV AND THEY WERE PROHIBITED TO DISCUSS ANY RECALLS OLDER THEN 2009. I AM AT AN IMPASSE AS I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW IF MY UNIT IS AFFECTED. I HAVE HAD ANOTHER RV DEALER CHECK IT AND GAVE THEM INFORMATION COPIES (SEE ABOVE) OF WHAT I COULD FIND ON THE INTERNET. THEY HAVE TRIED CONTACTING COACHMEN AND HAVE NOT HAD ANY LUCK IN GETTING AN ANSWER. AS THIS IS A SAFETY RECALL, THIS SECOND DEALER SAID THAT I SHOULD NOT TOW ANYTHING OR USE THE HITCH UNTIL THIS PROBLEM IS RESOLVED, I FEEL THAT THIS NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED AND WOULD APPRECIATE YOUR HELP. *TR
