Space Craft is recalling 2006-2013 fifth wheel and travel trailers equipped with Fastec door locks that may jam, potentially trapping occupants inside.

What this means for you

Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.

Our severity reasoning: The recall involves a risk-of-harm product where injury has not yet been reported, specifically the potential for occupants to be trapped inside the vehicle.

Plain-English summary

Space Craft Mfg., Inc. is recalling certain model year 2006-2013 fifth wheel and travel trailers manufactured between January 1, 2006, and April 25, 2013. These vehicles are equipped with Fastec-brand door locks. The recall involves 9 affected vehicles.

The defect may allow the key to be removed in a way that jams the deadbolt. If the deadbolt jams, the interior side of the door lock may also jam. This could lock a person inside the travel trailer, preventing them from exiting and increasing the risk of injury.

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. Owners may also contact the NHTSA Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 or visit www.safercar.gov.
