Defect description

DRV Suites (DRV) is recalling certain model year 2017 Full House recreational trailers, models JX450, LX410, LX450 and LX455, manufactured August 29, 2016, to November 30, 2016. The affected vehicles have rear cargo door hinges with welds on the hinge pin and hinge plate that may be insufficient, and as a result, the top of the door may swing down with more force than normal.

Safety risk

If the door does not open as expected, there would be an increased risk of injury to those in the door's path.

Manufacturer remedy

DRV will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the weld thickness, and if necessary replace the hinge, free of charge. The recall began on January 11, 2017. Owners may contact DRV customer service at 1-260-562-3500. DRV's number for this recall is 99.02.07.
