What this recall means for you
Certain travel trailers have a 50-amp shore power inlet whose lug bolts may have been made from metal that is too hard. Because the bolts cannot be tightened properly, the wiring connection can work loose.
A loose wiring connection can cause an electrical arc or short circuit, which increases the risk of fire. Owners should watch for signs of a problem with the trailer's power connection.
The repair is free. Authorized dealers will inspect the power inlet and replace it if necessary at no cost to you. Owners can also contact Keystone customer service at 1-866-425-4369, referencing recall number 22-428. Check your vehicle identification number (VIN) for open recalls to confirm whether your trailer is affected.
