OFFICIAL NHTSA RECALL
13E053000
Latches/locks/linkages
Reported Sep 30, 2013 · Emmett Door Inc.
Summary
Emmett Door is recalling certain RV doors manufactured January 1, 2006, through April 25, 2013 and equipped with Fastec-brand door locks. It may be possible to remove the key from the lock in a way that potentially jams the deadbolt.
Consequence
If the deadbolt jams, the interior side of the door lock may also jam. A person inside the travel trailer at the time will then be locked in and be unable to exit the vehicle without using the emergency exit, increasing the risk of injury.
Remedy
Emmett Door will notify the manufacturers that purchased the affected doors from them and Fastec will coordinate the inspection and replacement of the cylinders, as needed, free of charge. The recall began on October 31, 2013. Owners may contact Emmett Door at 1-877-817-2029 or Fastec at 1-800-837-2505.
Notes
Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.
