2017 Keystone Bullet recalls

Recall 17V-755: Equipment

Reported Nov 22, 2017 · 1,205,997 vehicles affected · Keystone RV Company

Problem: Keystone RV Company (Keystone) is recalling various 2003-2018 Crossroads, Dutchmen, and Keystone recreational trailers equipped with Kidde Plastic-Handle or Push Button 'Pindicator' Fire Extinguishers. A list of the affected trailer models is available at: https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/rcl/2017/RMISC-17V755-5127.pdf. 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.

Tires · at 500 miles · reported Jul 6, 2018
I, as many others who buy recreational vehicles, have been having some issues with these tires blowing out. We purchased our vehicle, brand new in february 2018. Less than 500 miles on tires. The tire pressure was correct and we had a very light load, less than they tires are supposed to be able to handle. We just recently had one which thankfully no harm to anyone but our camper. After this we replaced all the tires.
Suspension · at 1,000 miles · reported Jul 18, 2017
