On june 30th, 2014, I had an electrical fire in the fuse block panel in the engine compartment. This also impacted the wiring harnesses. The vehicle was repaired at a gm dealership. It appeared that the fire began with the ldm module for running the low-beam and daytime running lights as this was burned through the exterior of the module and spread within the box. The vehicle was repaired and I made contact with buick on the issue but after initially seeming like they wanted to be involved with the root-cause of the issue did not do anything about this issue nor pursue any further. The gm dealer repaired with costs of approx. $2500. They also indicated that there was nothing listed from gm about this issue. Seems that there are issues within either this module or the low beams. The vehicle would have burned entirely but the fire department responded within 5 minutes of the call made to put out the electrical fire in the fuse panel.

- What is wrong
- Outlaw Conversions (Outlaw) is recalling certain model year 2006-2013 Hart, 4-Star, and Platinum gooseneck horse trailers with living quarters 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.
- Risk
- 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
- Outlaw will notify owners, and Fastec will coordinate the inspection and replacement of the cylinders, as needed, free of charge. The owners could not be loacated for this recall Owners may contact Outlaw at 1‑254‑968‑5733 or Fastec at 1‑800‑837‑2505.
