All recalls
Latches/locks/linkages
- What is wrong
- Nu Wa Industries Inc. (Nu Wa) is recalling certain model year 2011-2013 Hitchhiker LS, Discover America and Champagne Edition fifth wheel recreational trailers manufactured August 2010 through February 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 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
- Nu Wa will notify owners, and Fastec will coordinate the inspection and replacement of the cylinders, as needed, free of charge. The recall is expected to begin by the end of March 2014. Owners may contact Nu Wa Industries at 1‑620‑431‑2088 or Fastec at 1‑800‑837‑2505.
