Keystone RV is recalling 389 model year 2010 Raptor fifth wheel motorhomes because the landing gear motor may overheat and cause a fire.

What this means for you

Our assessment, not the agency’s: severity 4/5 (Severe).

The hazard poses a serious risk of illness, injury, or structural failure. Stop using the product immediately and contact the manufacturer for a refund or repair.

Our severity reasoning: The recall involves a structural vehicle defect (landing gear motor) with an explicit risk of fire, which aligns with the rubric criteria for a Severe (4) rating.

Plain-English summary

Keystone RV Company is recalling 389 model year 2010 Raptor fifth wheel motorhomes manufactured between September 25, 2009, and March 2, 2010. The recall addresses a defect where the remote receiver is not compatible with the high-speed landing gear motor.

If the motor is operated in a binding situation, the remote receiver may be damaged and overheat due to inadequate breaker and fuse protection and excessive current draw. Continuing to operate the landing gear motor in this condition increases the risk of fire.

The safety recall began on July 8, 2010. Keystone RV will notify owners, and the vehicles will be repaired free of charge. Owners may contact Keystone at 1-866-425-4369 or the NHTSA Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236.
