2005–2006 Keystone Cougar & 2005–2006 Keystone Mountaineer + 2 more recall: wheels
⚠️ What's wrong
On certain travel trailers and fifth wheel recreational vehicles equipped with tredit 16" chrome wheels, the rims may have poor weld quality and insufficient press fit between the wheel rim and disc.
💥 The risk
The center of the wheel could separate from the rim. The wheel may wobble and cause a vibration or the mounted tire could lose air causing the tire to go flat, resulting in a loss of control of the vehicle and increasing the risk of a crash.
🔧 The fix
Keystone is working with tredit tire to notify owners and have the wheels replaced. The recall began on february 15, 2006. Owners may contact keystone at 866-425-4369.
Is the fix free? Yes. Safety recall repairs are free at any authorized dealer under federal law, including parts and labor. (Vehicles more than 15 years old when the recall was announced can be excluded, but most manufacturers still fix them.)
