Defect. Keystone RV Company (Keystone) is recalling certain model year 2013-2014 recreational trailers equipped with Dometic 9100 Power Awnings or Weather Pro awnings, awning serial numbers 306xxxx through 314xxxx, manufactured between February 13, 2013, through April 9, 2013. If the awning installation sequence was not completely followed, the awning motor may unknowningly become damaged. A damaged motor may lead to an unfurling of the awning.

Risk. If the awning unfurls unexpectedly either in transit or while parked, it may increase thre risk of personal injury or a crash.

Remedy. Keystone will notify owners and dealers will replace the awning motor, free of charge. The recall began on May 7, 2013. Owners may contact Keystone at 1-866-425-4369. Keystone's campaign recall number is 13-193.

I HAVE BEEN INFORMED THAT YOU ARE TRACKING THE SUBJECT RECALL. I WAS SENT A COPY FROM KEYSTONE. I HAVE A CONCERN ABOUT THIS RECALL. I TOOK MY KEYSTONE 2014 MONTANA 3402RL TO TIARA RV IN ELKHART, IN SO THEY COULD DO THE RECALL. THEY ASSURED ME THEY USE THE OFFICIAL RECALL REPAIR. ON THE SECOND DAY OF USE, RETURNING FROM TIARA, A TRIP OF ABOUT 500 MILES, THE STEP FAILED AGAIN AS IT DID PRIOR TO THE RECALL. HOWEVER, THIS TIME INSTEAD OF A RIVET FAILING, THE NUT ON THE TOP BOLT WAS MISSING. I CHECKED THE OTHER 3 BOLTS/NUTS AND THEY WERE VERY LOOSE AND WOULD HAVE FALLEN OFF WITH A FEW MORE MILES OF VIBRATION. I COULD SEE THE FLAW OF THIS FIX; STANDARD BOLTS AND NUTS WITHOUT LOCK WASHERS OR LOCK NUTS WITH NYLON INSERTS IN THE THREADS. SO FOR MY SANITY, I WENT TO THE HARDWARE STORE AND BOUGHT 4 SS BOLTS LONGER THAN THE RECALL USED AND 4 LOCK NUTS. SO FAR SO GOOD, I'LL KEEP AN EYE ON MY FIX, BUT I'M CONCERNED THAT THE RECALL FIX I GOT WAS OBVIOUSLY NOT VERY GOOD. TIARA RV SAID THEY USED THE OFFICIAL FIX, AND KEYSTONE SAID TO TAKE IT TO ANOTHER DEALER. BUT IT'S NOT WORTH FUEL COST TO TOW THE RV TO ANOTHER DEALER TO MAYBE GET MY FIX REMOVED AND THE POOR OFFICIAL FIX REINSTALLED. I WOULD LOVE TO GET THE OFFICIAL RECALL REPAIR PARTS SENT TO ME BY MAIL SO I CAN SEE IF IT IS ANY BETTER THAN MY FIX. BUT WHEN THE 'OFFICIAL' FIX FAILED IN LESS THAN 18 HOURS, EITHER THE FIX IS BAD, OR I DIDN'T GET THE RIGHT FIX. ...UPDATED 06-12-15 *BF THE CONSUMER STATED THE MANUFACTURER AMENDED THE REPAIR TO

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.
