Elite Trailers, Inc. recall 13V553000

Elite Trailers Inc. (Elite) 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.

Reported 11/05/2013

What can happen

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, increasing the risk of injury.

Repair

Elite will notify owners, and Fastec will coordinate the inspection and replacement of the cylinders, as needed, free of charge. Owners may contact Elite Trailers, Inc. at 1-918-962-4567 or Fastec at 1-800-837-2505.
