Keystone Recalls 2017 Cougar Trailers Due to Fire Risk

Keystone is recalling 2017 Cougar recreational trailers because a manual-resetting circuit breaker near propane storage may spark and cause a fire.

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 (fire hazard) where injury has not yet been reported, which aligns with the High severity criteria.

Plain-English summary

Keystone RV Company is recalling certain 2017 Cougar recreational trailers, specifically models 326RDS, 327RKL, 333MKS, 336BHS, and 359MBI. These vehicles were built with a manual-resetting 12-volt circuit breaker that cannot be used in close proximity to liquid propane storage.

If the breaker sparks when it is being manually reset, it can increase the risk of a fire. No injuries or deaths have been reported in connection with this defect.

Keystone will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the trailers and replace the breaker with one that automatically resets, as necessary, free of charge. The recall began on March 29, 2017. Owners may contact Keystone customer service at 1-866-425-4369 or the NHTSA Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236.
