All EverGreen Recreational Vehicles campaigns

Defect summary

EverGreen Recreational Vehicles, LLC (EverGreen) is recalling certain model year 2013 Ever-Lite, Ever-Lite Select, i-Go, and Ascend travel trailers manufactured February 17, 2012, through October 30, 2012 and equipped with Fastec-brand door locks. In the affected trailers, 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.

Remedy

EverGreen will notify owners, and Fastec will coordinate the inspection and replacement of the cylinders, as needed, free of charge. The recall began on March 3, 2014. Owners may contact EverGreen at 1-574-825-4298 or Fastec at 1-800-837-2505.

Notes

Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.
