THIS INCIDENT OCCURRED ON A SONIC LITE VMS 167 TRAVEL TRAILER. WHILE FILLING THE FRESH WATER HOLDING TANK (VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY AT PARK DUMP STATION) WHILE LEAVING A CAMPGROUND PREPARING TO TRAVEL TO THE NEXT CAMPGROUND, ONE END OF THE TANK FELL FROM THE UNDERCARRIAGE OF THE TRAILER TO THE PAVEMENT. AFTER DRAINING AND REMOVING THE TANK, IT WAS DISCOVERED THAT NO SCREWS WERE IN PLACE TO SECURE THE TANK BRACES TO THE I-BEAMS. ALTHOUGH HOLES WERE TAPPED IN BOTH THE TANK BRACKETS AND THE I-BEAMS, THERE WAS NO EVIDENCE (IE: WORN SPOTS NORMALLY LEFT BY WASHERS AND BOLTS) THAT BOLTS OR SCREWS WERE EVER USED TO SECURE THE TANK TO THE TRAILER. HAD THIS 38 GALLON TANK WEIGHING +/- 1100 LBS (FILLED W/WATER) FELL WHILE ON THE HIGHWAY, THE CONSEQUENCES MIGHT HAVE BEEN DEVASTATING.

KZRV, L.P. (KZRV) is recalling various 2002-2018 recreational trailers equipped with Kidde Plastic-Handle or Push Button 'Pindicator' Fire Extinguishers. See a list of the affected trailer models at: https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/rcl/2017/RMISC-17V749-9547.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

Consequence & remedy
