What this recall means for you
Certain motorhomes are equipped with plastic-handle or push-button fire extinguishers that may become clogged, making them fail to discharge as expected or requiring excessive force to activate. In some cases the nozzle can also detach from the valve assembly with enough force to cause injury and render the extinguisher unusable.
If a fire breaks out and the extinguisher does not work properly, the risk of injury increases. Owners should check whether their extinguisher is one of the affected models listed in the official recall notice.
The replacement extinguisher is free of charge. Contact Lazy Daze customer service at 1-909-627-1103 or Kidde customer service at 1-855-271-0773, or visit www.kidde.com and select "Product Safety Recall." You can also check your vehicle identification number (VIN) for any other open recalls.
