What happened

Gulf Stream Coach is recalling certain model year 2007-2013 travel trailers of multiple brands manufactured between January 1, 2006, and April 25, 2013, that are equipped with Fastec-brand door locks. The defect involves the possibility of jamming the deadbolt by removing the key in a certain way, which can also jam the interior side of the door lock. If this occurs while someone is inside the trailer, that person could become locked in and unable to exit through the regular door, requiring use of an emergency exit and potentially resulting in injury.

Gulf Stream will notify owners, and Fastec will coordinate a free inspection and replacement of the cylinders as needed. The recall began on December 20, 2013. Affected owners should contact Fastec at 1-800-837-2505 or Gulf Stream at 1-574-773-7761 to arrange service, referencing Gulf Stream's recall number 13FI-1013.

Hazard

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.
