2011 Keystone Laredo recalls (7)
- EQUIPMENT
Keystone RV Company (Keystone) is recalling various 2003-2018 Crossroads, Dutchmen, and Keystone recreational trailers equipped with Kidde Plastic-Handle or Push Button 'Pindicator' Fire Extinguishers. A list of the affected trailer models is available at: https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/rcl/2017/RMISC-17V755-5127.pdf. These extinguishers may become clogged, preventing the extinguisher from discharging as expected or excessive force may be needed to activate the extinguisher. Additionally, in certain models, the nozzle may detach from the valve assembly with enough force that it could cause injury and also render the product inoperable.

Risk: In the event of a fire, if the fire extinguisher does not function properly, it can increase the risk of injury.

- POWER TRAIN:AXLE ASSEMBLY
Keystone is recalling certain model year 2011 cougar and laredo travel trailers. The axles are installed backwards causing a slight reduction in braking torque and shortened brake lining service life.
Risk: Over time diminished braking capacity could lead to an increased risk of property damage and/or personal injury.
Remedy: Dealers will inspect the axles to verify the brake wires are on the off-door side. If they are not, the axles will be removed and reversed. This service will be performed free of charge. The safety recall began on february 18, 2011. Owners may contact keystone customer service at 1-866-425-4369.
- EQUIPMENT
Keystone is recalling certain model year 2011 avalanche, laredo, and springdale recreational vehicles equipped with atwood 35 series range ovens. A potential exists for a small fracture within the line delivering gas to the oven cavity burner. Such a fracture may cause propane gas to leak from the line.
Risk: A propane leak in the presence of an ignition source could result in a fire and/or explosion causing property damage and/or personal injury.
Remedy: Dealers will isolate and perform a drop pressure test on the oven supply tube and if the tube leaks it will be replaced free of charge. The safety recall has started. Owners may contact keystone customer service at 1-866-425-4369. This safety recall campaign is an expansion of a previous recall (please see 10v-478).
- TRAILER HITCHES
Keystone is recalling certain model year 2010-2011 cougar, laredo and outback travel trailers equipped with lippert component hitch couplers for lack of indentation on the forward edge of the coupler.
Risk: If the coupler is lacking the indent it will lead to an increased risk of trailer separation from the hitch ball while towing resulting in property damage and/or vehicle crash.
Remedy: Owners are asked to inspect the hitch coupler for the correct stamping. If the hitch coupler is not formed correctly arrangements will be made to replace it free of charge. The safety recall began on january 24, 2011. Owners may contact keystone customer service at 1-866-425-4369.
- WHEELS
Keystone is recalling certain model year 2011 travel trailers equipped with 15" x 6" white spoke or modular design steel wheels with a six hole bolt pattern. Some of the wheels may have inadequate weld penetration between the outer ring and the center plate due to improper plate alignment.
Risk: There could be a potential wheel failure and wheel loss increasing the risk of a crash, or personal injury.
Remedy: Keystone will replace the wheels free of charge. The safety recall began on december 15, 2010. Owners may contact keystone at 1-866-425-4369.

Keystone is recalling certain 2011 alpine, avalanche, fuzion, laredo, montana, and mountaineer fifth wheel trailers manufactured from august 19, 2010 through september 1, 2010, equipped with dexter axles. On some axles, cracks could appear in the spindle weld.
Risk: These cracks can propagate and cause the spindle to detach from the axle tube, resulting in the separation of the wheel end from the vehicle, creating a road hazard that increases the risk of a crash to other vehicles, and compromises the driver's control of the vehicle increasing the risk of a vehicle crash.
Remedy: Keystone will notify owners and dealers will inspect the axle serial number and replace it if it falls within the serial number range. Replacement of the axle will be performed free of charge. The safety recall began on september 24, 2010. Owners may contact keystone customer service at 1-866-425-4369.

The driver side main support beam that runs the entire length of the trailer from front to back cracked. Also, many of the support beams that run the width of the trailer were twisted and nearly falling off. We had to replace the entire main support beam on the driver side as well as smaller supports that ran the width of the trailer. The first repair was in June 2022 for the smaller support beams. The second repair was in April 2023 for the long, driver side support beam.
