OFFICIAL NHTSA RECALL
13V522000
Latches/locks/linkages
Reported Oct 18, 2013 · RC Trailers Inc.
Summary
RC Trailers Inc. is recalling certain model year 2006-2013 RC and MTI enclosed trailers 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 trailer at the time will then be locked in and be unable to exit the vehicle, increasing the risk of injury.
Remedy
RC Trailers will notify owners, and Fastec will coordinate the inspection and replacement of the cylinders, as needed, free of charge. The recall began on January 14, 2014. Owners may contact RC Trailers at 1-574-825-9518 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.
