Pleasant Valley Recalls Travel Trailers Due to Fire Extinguisher Defect

Pleasant Valley is recalling 2017-2018 travel trailers and truck campers because the installed fire extinguishers may clog or detach, potentially failing to work during 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 safety-critical component (fire extinguisher) that may fail to function during a fire, increasing the risk of injury, which aligns with the rubric for risk-of-harm products where injury has not yet been reported.

Plain-English summary

Pleasant Valley Teardrop Trailers LLC is recalling certain 2017-2018 MyPod, T@G, T@B 320, T@B 400, Cirrus 820, and Cirrus 920 travel trailers and truck campers. The recall involves vehicles equipped with Kidde Plastic-Handle Fire Extinguishers, model 210D.

The fire extinguishers may become clogged, which can prevent them from discharging as expected or require excessive force to activate. Additionally, the nozzle may detach from the valve assembly with enough force to cause injury and render the product inoperable. If the fire extinguisher does not function properly during a fire, it can increase the risk of injury.

Owners should contact Pleasant Valley customer service at 1-330-852-4811 or Walter Kidde customer service at 1-855-262-3540 to get a replacement fire extinguisher free of charge. The recall began on December 20, 2017. Owners may also contact the NHTSA Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 or visit www.safercar.gov.
