What happened

Bison Coach, LLC is recalling certain 2010 Stratus, Aluma Sport, Trail Express, and Trail Hand recreational trailers equipped with specific Kidde Plastic-Handle or Push Button 'Pindicator' Fire Extinguishers. These fire extinguishers may become clogged and fail to discharge properly, may require excessive force to activate, or in certain models, the nozzle may detach from the valve assembly with enough force to cause injury and render the extinguisher inoperable. If a fire occurs and the extinguisher does not function properly, the risk of injury increases.

According to the recall notice, Bison will notify owners and instruct them to contact Kidde for a free replacement fire extinguisher.
