I drove my class a motorhome up my driveway after dumping my grey water tank. I went to exit through the only door and it would not open no matter what I did. I had to crawl out of a window to get out nearly injuring myself. it has been 6 hours and I have repeatedly tried to open the door from the outside and it will not open. had there been a fire or emergency it would have been a real problem. I believe it IS a trimark lock. *tr

Reference: report receipt date: mar 17, 2005 nhtsa campaign number: 05v092000 component(s): trailer hitches I purchased a used coachmen mirada motorhome on april 23, 2013. After picking up the motorhome, I checked for recalls and found that there was one on the "hitch bracket assembly". In contacting the dealer I was informed that the recall had been completed and that I could call coachmen for confirmation. When I called coachmen they stated that they had not talked to anyone at the dealer and could not confirm if my unit had been checked and/or repaired. They stated that forest river rv purchased coachmen rv and they were prohibited to discuss any recalls older then 2009. I am at an impasse as I would like to know if my unit IS affected. I have had another rv dealer check it and gave them information copies (see above) of what I could find on the internet. They have tried contacting coachmen and have not had any luck in getting an answer. as this IS a safety recall, this second dealer said that I should not tow anything or use the hitch until this problem IS resolved, I feel that this needs to be addressed and would appreciate your help. *tr
