2008 Keystone Energy & 2007 Keystone Hideout recall: suspension
⚠️ What's wrong
Certain travel trailers may have been manufactured with the incorrect hanger and shackle bolt torqueon the axle suspension.
💥 The risk
If the bolts do not have the proper torque applied, they could come off the vehicle while driving causing poor vehicle handling increasing the risk of a crash.
🔧 The fix
Dealers will verify the shackle bolts have the correct torque and re-tighten if necessary. All vehicles are still at dealers. No trailers have been sold to customers. The recall began on october 18, 2007.
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.)
