2006–2013 4-STAR Horse Trailer & 2006–2013 Hart Horse Trailer + 1 more recall: door latches & locks

⚠️ What's wrong

Outlaw Conversions (Outlaw) is recalling certain model year 2006-2013 Hart, 4-Star, and Platinum gooseneck horse trailers with living quarters manufactured January 1, 2006, through April 25, 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.
