Keystone Passport Recall 21V240: Spare Tire Can Block Left Taillight, Raising Crash Risk

NHTSA campaign 21V240, reported April 6, 2021, 233 vehicles potentially affected.

What this recall means for you

The spare tire on certain 2021 Keystone Passport trailers is mounted to the rear wall in a way that blocks the view of the left taillight. A taillight that other drivers cannot see makes a crash more likely, because they may not realize the trailer is there or how close it is.

If you own an affected trailer, Keystone will notify you and dealers will relocate the spare tire at no cost to you. Owner notification letters were mailed April 30, 2021. You can also contact Keystone customer service at 1-866-425-4369, referencing recall number 21-405.

Whether or not you received a letter, check your vehicle identification number (VIN) for open recalls to confirm whether your trailer is included.
