Recall 17V-753: Equipment

Reported Nov 22, 2017 · 7,896 vehicles affected · DRV Suites

Problem: DRV Suites (DRV) is recalling certain 2007-2018 Elite Suites, 2014-2018 Full House, 2003-2018 Mobile Suites, 2010-2018 Mobile Suite Estates, 2006-2012 Select Suite, 2013-2016 Tradition, and 2017 Travel Suites recreational vehicles, equipped with certain Kidde Plastic-Handle or Push Button 'Pindicator' Fire Extinguishers. These extinguishers may become clogged, preventing the extinguisher from discharging as expected or excessive force may be needed to activate the extinguisher. Additionally, in certain models, the nozzle may detach from the valve assembly with enough force that it could cause injury and also render the product inoperable.

Recent 2017 Drv Full House complaints

Owner reports filed with NHTSA, as written (personal details removed). Complaints are not verified by NHTSA.

Service Brakes · at 4,500 miles · reported Sep 1, 2020
Brake failure secondary to brake hose to rv wheel cylinder losing fluid because brake hose rubbed against frame until it failed. This resulted in loss of brakes when attempting to stop at a city street light. I found that several of the 5 other hoses showed signs of pending failure secondarily to rubbing against frame. These units alos have a potential for catastrophic brake failure if tire blows as lines are exposed.
