What is wrong
Bay Bridge Manufacturing LLC (Bay Bridge) is recalling certain model year 2006-2013 cargo box vans and trailers manufactured January 1, 2006, through July 31, 2013 and equipped with Fastec-brand door locks. It may be possible to remove the key from the lock in a way that potentially jams the deadbolt.
What can happen
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, increasing the risk of injury.
The fix
Recall repairs are free of charge.
Bay Bridge will notify owners, and Fastec will coordinate the inspection and replacement of the cylinders, as needed, free of charge. The recall began in March 2014. Owners may contact Bay Bridge at 1-578-848-7477 or Fastec at 1-800-837-2505.

A recall means the maker found a safety problem and offers a free fix; it does not mean every unit has the problem. Units affected are as reported by the company. Popular models sell more and so have more recalls and complaints. Official public data; texts are shortened. A dealer can tell whether a single vehicle still needs the repair.
