2019 Keystone Montana recall: suspension

⚠️ What's wrong

Keystone RV Company (Keystone) is recalling certain 2019 Keystone Montana recreational trailers. The axles may have defective welds on the spindles, potentially resulting in a spindle and wheel assembly detaching from the axle.

💥 The risk

If the spindle or wheel assembly detaches from the axle, it can affect vehicle handling and increase the risk of a crash.

🔧 The fix

Keystone will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the axle tag, replacing it as necessary, free of charge. The recall began January 14, 2019. Owners may contact Keystone customer service at 1-866-425-4369. Keystone's number for this recall is 18-342.

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.)
