Carson Fun Runner Trailers Recalled for Door Lock Jamming Hazard

Carson is recalling 2009-2012 Fun Runner trailers because a door lock defect may jam the deadbolt, 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, as the defect may trap occupants inside the vehicle.

Plain-English summary

Carson Trailer, Inc. is recalling certain model year 2009-2012 Fun Runner trailers manufactured between May 12, 2006, and June 7, 2012. These vehicles are equipped with a Fastec-brand door lock that 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 leave a person inside the travel trailer locked in and unable to exit without using the emergency exit, increasing the risk of injury.

Carson will notify owners, and Fastec will coordinate the inspection and replacement of the cylinders, as needed, free of charge. The recall began on August 25, 2015. Owners may contact Carson at 1-310-516-6046 or Fastec at 1-800-837-2505.
