2012 Atc RSX recalls
Recall 13V-478: Latches/Locks/Linkages
Problem: Aluminum Trailer Company (ATC) is recalling certain model year 2008-2013 Quest, RSX, and Raven trailers manufactured January 2008 through April 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.
Risk: 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.
Fix: ATC will notify owners, and Fastec will coordinate the inspection and replacement of the cylinders, as needed, free of charge. The recall began on November 18, 2013. Owners may contact ATC at 1-574-773-2440 or Fastec at 1-800-837-2505.
Recall 12V-171: Equipment
Problem: Aluminum trailer company (Atc) is recalling certain model year 2012 rsx gooseneck and quest (Qst) car haulers equipped with a dexter axle brand electric/hydraulic (E/h) brake actuator pump. This pump may not have been properly heat treated. This condition can cause premature wear of some critical components in this pump which can render the unit inoperable.
Risk: The e/h brake actuator provides braking power to the trailer brakes. Failure of the actuator can result in the loss of braking effort by the trailer, increasing the risk of a crash.
Fix: Atc will notify owners and dexter axle dealers will replace the electric/hydraulic (E/h) brake actuator pumps, free of charge. Atc has not provided a notification schedule. Owners may contact atc at 1-877-441-2440.
