Latches/locks/linkagesReported December 9, 2013 · 38,434 vehicles affected
What is wrong
Skyline Corporation (Skyline) is recalling certain model year 2006-2013 recreational vehicle travel trailers and fifth-wheel trailers manufactured January 1, 2006, through May, 31, 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
Skyline will notify owners, and Fastec will coordinate the inspection and replacement of the cylinders, as needed, free of charge. The recall began on April 7, 2014. Owners may contact Skyline at 1‑800‑755‑6521 or Fastec at 1‑800‑837‑2505.

Problem 1: refrigerator only cooled to 48 degrees. Counter top above dometic refrigerator unit became hot to the touch. Mb thomas replaced fridge unit, same result. The unit kicked out the circuit. They are going to try installing a fan, as instructed by dometic. Problem 2: the main power source, 30 amp wire, was not secured within the trailer. When the slide out opens and closes, it rubs over the power wire, causing the rubber wire casing to become damaged.
