Defect Description

HL Enterprise, Inc. (HL Enterprise) is recalling certain model year 2011-2013 Hy-Line, Bridgeview, Georgian Bay, and Harbor View travel, fifth-wheel and destination trailers manufactured January 2011 through April 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.

!

Safety Consequence

If the deadbolt jams, the interior side of the door lock may also jam. A person inside the trailer at the time will then be locked in and be unable to exit the vehicle, increasing the risk of injury.

Remedy

HL Enterprise will notify owners, and Fastec will coordinate the inspection and replacement of the cylinders, as needed, free of charge. The recall is expected to begin by mid-January 2014. The recall began on December 18, 2013. Owners may contact HL Enterprise at 1-574-294-1112 or Fastec at 1-800-837-2505.
