Recalls for 2007 Lakota 4hslgn6

DEFECT #1 - LATCHES/LOCKS/LINKAGES

Posted on: 2013-09-23
Description
Lakota is recalling one model year 2007 3hslbp and one model year 2007 4hslgn6 travel trailer, each equipped with a fastec-brand door lock.  It may be possible to remove the key from the lock in a way that potentially jams the deadbolt.  

Consequence
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.

Corrective Action
Lakota will notify owners, and fastec will coordinate the inspection and replacement of the cylinders, as needed, free of charge.  The recall began on october 31, 2013.  Owners may contact lakota at 1-574-848-1636 or fastec at 1-800-837-2505.  Lakota's recall number is eq 13-006.
