Defect. 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.

Risk. 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.

Reading this record

No unusual pattern of severe incidents in the complaint record.

Complaint counts track how many cars were sold and how long they have been on the road as much as they track quality. A common model from 2013 has had a decade to accumulate reports; a rare one from last year has not. The signal worth weighing is in the severity columns, in whether the same component keeps appearing, and in whether the manufacturer eventually opened a recall for it.

Recall repairs are free for as long as the recall stands. Check whether a specific car still has open work at NHTSA's VIN lookup.
