2010 Starcraft Emblem/Lexion Recall 10V019: Leveling Jack

Recall 10V019 affects 29 2010 Starcraft Emblem and Lexion trailers for a leveling jack module that self-activates in moisture. Dealer repair will be free.

Starcraft is recalling 29 2010 Emblem and Lexion fifth-wheel travel trailers because moisture can make the leveling-jack remote activation module turn on without the remote control. If the jack activates while the trailer is being towed, crash risk rises, and the Starcraft dealer repair will be free once available.

What's wrong?

The affected part is the remote activation module for the leveling jack on 2010 Starcraft Emblem and Lexion fifth-wheel travel trailers. This module is supposed to receive a command from the handheld remote, then tell the jack system when to move. The leveling jack raises or steadies the trailer during setup, so it should operate only when the owner intentionally activates it.

On these trailers, moisture can interfere with the remote activation module. When the module gets wet, it can start the leveling jack command on its own without anyone pressing the remote. That means the jack system is no longer limited to a deliberate owner command.

There is no warning sign before failure. An owner is not told to watch for a light, sound, or message before the module activates the leveling jack without the remote.

Who's affected?

The same integrated jack/leveler/stabilizer component appears across the Emblem and Lexion scope.

A matching 2010 Starcraft Emblem or Lexion does not confirm inclusion. Check your VIN to confirm whether your specific RV is included.

What's the safety risk?

If the jack activates while the vehicle is being towed, the result can be a crash that causes property damage, injury, or death. Treat any unexpected jack movement as a reason to stop towing and call the dealer before moving the vehicle again. Repair will be free at any franchised Starcraft dealer once available.

What should I do?

  1. Check your VIN to confirm your 2010 Starcraft Emblem or Lexion is included in this recall.
  2. Contact Starcraft customer service at 1-800-945-4787 to ask when the relay repair is available for your VIN.
  3. Ask a franchised Starcraft dealer about the relay installation that keeps moisture from self-activating the leveling-jack remote module.
  4. Bring the recall notice Starcraft mailed on February 5, 2010, or reference recall number 10V019 when you call.
  5. Avoid towing the trailer until Starcraft or the dealer gives repair guidance for the leveling jack.

What happens at the repair

At the dealer, a Starcraft technician installs a relay in the leveling jack remote activation circuit. That relay is meant to stop the remote module from activating on its own when moisture is present. Because the remedy status is not confirmed in the recall data, treat scheduling as a dealer question: the dealer repair will be free once Starcraft confirms availability for your VIN. Ask the service desk to document the relay installation on the repair order and confirm that the leveling jack system no longer activates without the remote control.

What should I do if my 2010 Starcraft Emblem or Lexion is on this recall?

Check your VIN to confirm your specific trailer is included in recall 10V019. If it is, contact a franchised Starcraft dealer and ask for the relay installation for the leveling-jack remote activation module. Reference recall number 10V019 when you call.

Is the recall repair free?

Yes. Federal recall law requires the manufacturer to repair the safety defect at no cost. Starcraft dealers will install a relay that prevents the remote leveling-jack module from self-activating in moisture, with parts and labor covered under the recall.

What is the safety risk?

The risk is unwanted leveling-jack activation while the trailer is being towed. Starcraft reported that moisture can cause the remote activation module to activate without the remote control. If the jack deploys on the road, it can lead to a crash, property damage, injury, or death.

What if I bought my Starcraft trailer used?

The free recall repair still applies. Recalls follow the vehicle, not the first owner. Check your VIN to confirm whether your 2010 Emblem or Lexion is included, then call a franchised Starcraft dealer and give them recall number 10V019.
