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 or cause injury during a fire, fitting the 'High' criteria for risk-of-harm products where injury has not yet been reported.

Plain-English summary

Coach House, Inc. is recalling certain 2003-2018 Platinum, 2008-2018 Platinum II, and 2010-2018 Arriva recreational vehicles. These vehicles are equipped with Kidde Plastic-Handle or Push Button 'Pindicator' Fire Extinguishers that may become clogged, preventing discharge or requiring excessive force to activate. In certain models, the nozzle may detach from the valve assembly with enough force to cause injury and render the extinguisher inoperable.

The defect increases the risk of injury in the event of a fire if the extinguisher does not function properly. Owners should contact Coach House customer service at 1-800-235-0984 or Kidde customer service at 1-855-262-3540 for a free replacement fire extinguisher. The recall began on April 11, 2018. Owners may also contact the NHTSA Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 or visit www.safercar.gov for more information.
