Team Spirit recall: Latches/locks/linkages
What is wrong
Team Spirit Trailers of Elkhart (Team Spirit) is recalling certain model year 2006-2013 TSCR, TSCFTS, TSCPTS, TSCGTS, TSCSTS, TSCDTS, TSPL and TSDPL enclosed cargo trailers equipped with a Fastec-brand integrated deadbolt lock. It may be possible to remove the key from the lock in a way that potentially jams the deadbolt.
What could happen
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, increasing the risk of injury.
The fix
Team Spirit will notify owners, and Fastec will coordinate the inspection and replacement of the cylinders, as needed, free of charge. The recall began on November 14, 2013. Owners may contact Team Spirit at 1-574-266-2966 or Fastec at 1-800-837-2505.
