Recall 05V-181: 2005 Fleetwood Orbit, 2005 Fleetwood Pegasus and 3 more
FLEETWOOD FOLDING TRAILER, INC. recall for equipment, reported to NHTSA on Apr 28, 2005, covering about 129 vehicles.
The problem
Certain towable travel trailers were built without a bedroom emergency egress window.
The risk
In the event of a fire or other emergency, persons in the front bedroom area must exit through the access door. If the access door is blocked, there is no way out of the trailer, increasing the risk of injuries to the trailer occupants.
The fix
Dealers will replace the current sliding window with an emergency egress exit window free of charge. The recall began on may 27, 2005. Owners may contact fleetwood folding trailer at 1-814-445-9661.
