On certain travel trailers equipped with Kidde fire extinguishers with black plastic handles and valves, the fire extinguishers may become clogged or require excessive force to activate. Also, the nozzle may detach from the valve assembly with enough force that it could cause injury, and fail to discharge. In case of fire, failure of the extinguisher to function could result in injury and/or property damage. Correction: Owners will be provided with instructions on how to inspect the fire extinguisher to see if it is recalled. Replacement fire extinguishers will be supplied by Kidde directly.

Certain vehicles may not comply with the requirements of Canada Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (CMVSS) 108 - Lighting System and Retroreflective Devices. The front side reflex reflector is located approximately 20cm-25cm (8” to 10”) above the maximum height requirement of 152cm (60”) prescribed by the standard. This could reduce vehicle conspicuity which would increase the risk of a crash causing injury and/or property damage. Correction: Owners will be sent a reflector and instructions for proper placement on the sidewall. If owners are not comfortable installing the reflector themselves, they can take the label to a dealer for installation.
