NHTSA recall 13V431000
Latches/locks/linkages
Proline Travel Trailer
The defect
PROLine Products LLC (PROline) is recalling certain model year 2006-2013 cargo trailers manufactured January 1, 2006, through April 25, 2013 and equipped with Fastec-brand door locks. It may be possible to remove the key from the lock in a way that potentially jams the deadbolt.
The risk
If the deadbolt jams, the interior side of the door lock may also jam. A person inside the travel trailer at the time will then be locked in and be unable to exit the vehicle without using the emergency exit, increasing the risk of injury.
The remedy
PROLine will notify owners, and Fastec will coordinate the inspection and replacement of the cylinders, as needed, free of charge. The recall began on December 3, 2013. Owners may contact PROLine at 1-603-652-7337 or Fastec at 1-800-837-2505.
