NHTSA Campaign Number: 13V466000
Manufacturer: Dressen Custom Trailers, Inc.
Date of Owner Notification: December 9th, 2013
Defect Summary:
Dressen Custom Trailers (Dressen) is recalling certain model year 2006-2013 Dakota Cargo trailers and Dakota Competitor trailers, DC and CP series, manufactured January 1, 2006, through April 25, 2013, 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. Consequence Summary:
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. Corrective Summary:
Dressen will notify owners, and Fastec will coordinate the inspection and replacement of the cylinders, as needed, free of charge. The recall began on December 9, 2013. Owners may contact Dressen at 1-605-428-4364 or Fastec at 1-800-837-2505. Recall Notes:
Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.
