Intercontinental Truck Cube Van Door Lock Recall for Jamming Risk

Intercontinental Truck Body is recalling 2010-2013 Cube Vans because a door lock defect may jam the deadbolt, potentially trapping occupants inside the vehicle.

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 risk of occupants being trapped inside the vehicle.

Plain-English summary

Intercontinental Truck Body (ITB) is recalling certain model year 2010-2013 Cube Vans manufactured between May 28, 2010, and June 7, 2013. These vehicles are equipped with Fastec-brand door locks. The recall affects 32 vehicles.

The defect involves the possibility of removing the key from the lock in a way that jams the deadbolt. If the deadbolt jams, the interior side of the door lock may also jam. This could leave a person inside the cube van unable to exit the vehicle without using the pass-through to the vehicle cab, increasing the risk of injury.

ITB will notify owners, and Fastec will coordinate the inspection and replacement of the cylinders, as needed, free of charge. The recall began in May 2014. Owners may contact ITB at 1-800-327-3349 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.
