Space Craft recall: Latches/locks/linkages
What is wrong
Space Craft Mfg., Inc. (Space Craft) is recalling certain model year 2006-2013 fifth wheel and travel 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.
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
Space Craft will notify owners, and Fastec will coordinate the inspection and replacement of the cylinders, as needed, free of charge. The recall began on January 10, 2014. Owners may contact Space Craft Manufacturing at 1-660-463-7520 or Fastec at 1-800-837-2505.
