What is wrong
Eagan Manufacturing (Eagan) is recalling certain model year 2006-2013 doors manufactured January 2006 through April 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 a 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.
The fix
Recall repairs are free of charge.
Eagan will notify the manufacturers that purchased the affected doors from them, and Fastec will coordinate the inspection and replacement of the lock cylinders, as needed, free of charge. The recall began on October 31, 2013. Owners may contact Eagan at 1-870-878-6805 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.
