Dutchmen Voltage Recall 19V396: Fifth-Wheel Pin Box May Fail Under Heavy Load

NHTSA campaign 19V396, reported May 24, 2019, 79 vehicles potentially affected.

What this recall means for you

Some 2019-2020 Dutchmen Voltage model 4185 trailers may have been built with an 18,000 lb-capacity fifth wheel pin box instead of the specified 21,000 lb-capacity pin box hitch. If the trailer is loaded above 18,000 lbs, the pin box may fail, which increases the risk of a crash.

If you own one of these trailers, check whether your hitch is the correct 21,000 lb-capacity unit and keep your loaded weight within the limits that apply to your equipment. Keystone RV Company will notify owners, and the remedy is free of charge: an authorized dealer will replace the pin box inner with one rated for 21,000 lbs. Keystone customer service can be reached at 1-866-425-4369 (recall number 19-354). You can also check your vehicle identification number for open recalls.
