Update: Keystone Trailers Recalled Over Fire Risk
Keystone is recalling approximately 5,564 Carbon, Fuzion, Impact, and Raptor travel trailers from model years 2021-2023 over concerns that the fuel station controller may fail. A failure of the fuel station controller increases the risk of a fire.
If you purchased a Keystone trailer that is affected by this recall, you should stop using it immediately and make an appointment with your local Keystone dealership. Dealers will inspect the circuit protection and install a 15-amp fuse and a box to protect the fuel station controller, free of charge.
This recall began on February 25, 2023.
Keystone’s number for this recall is 23-439.
What's the Problem?
This recall affects Keystone Crossroads Hampton 371FKL recreational trailers from model years 2018-2020, according to the U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA).
The Federal Identification Tag may incorrectly indicate the tire pressure as 6 PSI when the correct tire pressure is actually 80 PSI, NHTSA said. As such, these RVs fail to comply with the requirements of 49 CFR Part 567,"Certification." An incorrect label may lead to underinflating the tires, increasing the risk of a crash.
Keystone is notifying owners and dealers will replace the Federal Identification Tag, free of charge. This recall began on June 1, 2020.
