2006-2012 Cm Trailers Recall 13V629: Door Lock Jam

RN
Reviewed by the RecallNotify editorial team
Published June 2, 2026

Recall 13V629 covers 444 2006-2012 Cm Trailers and S&H trailers for Fastec door-lock deadbolt jams. Free inspection and replacement are available.

Cm Trailers is recalling 444 2006-2012 trailers, including Legacy and Revolution Stk models, because certain Fastec-brand door locks allow the key to be removed in a position that jams the deadbolt. If the interior side of the lock jams too, a person inside the trailer can be locked in and unable to exit, raising the risk of injury; the dealer repair will be free once available.

What's wrong?

The door lock on the 2006-2012 Cm Trailers models in this recall is the latch and deadbolt assembly for the trailer door. The latch keeps the door closed during normal use, and the deadbolt is the lock bolt that slides into place when the key is turned. On these trailers, the recall involves Fastec-brand door locks.

The defect is in the way the key and deadbolt interact. The key can be removed from the lock in a position that leaves the deadbolt jammed instead of fully moving in or out. When that happens, the door lock no longer works as intended, and the owner is left with a door that does not unlock or secure normally.

There is no warning sign before failure. The first thing an owner notices can be that the key comes out, but the deadbolt does not move normally when the lock is used again.

Who's affected?

The covered trailer lines run from 2006-2012 and include both Cm Trailers and S&H nameplates, with the same latches/locks/linkages component listed throughout.

A matching year, make, and model does not guarantee inclusion. Check your VIN to confirm whether your specific trailer is included.

What's the safety risk?

A jammed deadbolt can also jam the interior side of the door lock. Anyone inside the trailer can become locked in and unable to exit, which increases the risk of injury. Keep the door hardware inspected and schedule the recall work soon. Repair will be free at any franchised Cm Trailers dealer once available.

What should I do?

  1. Check your VIN to confirm your 2006-2012 Cm Trailers trailer is included in this recall.
  2. Contact Cm Trailers customer service at 1-888-268-7577 for recall instructions before using a trailer door with a Fastec lock.
  3. Ask about the free Fastec door-lock inspection and cylinder replacement that fixes the deadbolt-jam risk.
  4. Reference recall number 13V629 when you call Cm Trailers or Fastec.
  5. Keep the trailer door open or use another exit plan until the Fastec lock is inspected and repaired.

What happens at the repair

At the dealer, a Cm Trailers technician inspects the Fastec-brand door lock cylinders and replaces any cylinders that need replacement. Fastec coordinates the inspection and cylinder replacement with Cm Trailers. Parts and labor are free under the recall. The filing says the recall began on January 21, 2014, but it does not list a repair time. If the repair has not been completed on your trailer, Cm Trailers or Fastec handles the needed inspection and cylinder replacement free of charge.

Frequently asked questions

What is recall 13V629?

Recall 13V629 covers 444 2006-2012 Cm Trailers trailers equipped with Fastec-brand door locks. The key can be removed in a way that jams the deadbolt, which can also jam the interior side of the lock and trap a person inside. Fastec coordinates inspection and cylinder replacement for free.

What should I do if my 2006-2012 Cm Trailers trailer is on this recall?

Check your VIN to confirm your specific trailer is included in recall 13V629. If it is, contact Cm Trailers at 1-888-268-7577 and ask how Fastec will inspect the door lock and replace the lock cylinder. The repair is free.

Is the recall repair free?

Yes. Federal recall law requires the manufacturer to repair the defect at no cost, and the recall remedy says Fastec will coordinate inspection and replacement of the affected lock cylinders for free. Keep the campaign number, 13V629, available when you call.

What is the safety risk?

The safety risk is being trapped inside the trailer. If the deadbolt jams, the inside of the door lock can jam too, leaving a person inside unable to exit and increasing injury risk. The free repair path is inspection and lock-cylinder replacement through Fastec.

What if I bought this trailer used?

The free recall repair still applies. Recall coverage follows the trailer, not the first owner. Check your VIN to confirm inclusion, then call Cm Trailers at 1-888-268-7577 with recall 13V629 and ask for the Fastec door-lock inspection and cylinder replacement.
