Keystone Montana Fifth-Wheel Trailers Recalled for Fire Risk

Keystone is recalling 2018 Montana fifth-wheel trailers because the slide-out room switch may lack circuit protection, increasing fire risk.

What this means for you

Our assessment, not the agency’s: severity 4/5 (Severe).

The hazard poses a serious risk of illness, injury, or structural failure. Stop using the product immediately and contact the manufacturer for a refund or repair.

Our severity reasoning: The recall involves a structural vehicle defect (electrical wiring) with an explicit increased risk of fire, which aligns with the 'Severe' criteria for significant injury/property-damage reports or structural defects.
