What's wrong?

The affected 2013-2014 Keystone fifth wheel trailers use Frigidaire KG series microwaves, models CFMV152CLB and CFMV154CLS. In normal use, the microwave should heat only after someone loads it, closes the door, selects a setting, and starts the cycle. It is an appliance in the trailer, but it still creates real heat inside a small cabinet space.

On included Montana, Alpine, Big Sky, Fuzion, Dutchmen Infinity, and Dutchmen Voltage trailers, the microwave can start on its own. The defect is not a loose trim piece or a normal wear item. The problem is that the microwave begins heating without an owner command, including when no one is watching it.

There is no warning sign before failure. An owner is not expected to hear a special noise, see a warning light, or feel a change in trailer operation before the microwave starts by itself.

Who's affected?

Spans six Keystone trailer lines across the 2013 and 2014 model years, all tied to recreational vehicle/trailer equipment.

The year and model narrow the scope, but the VIN decides. Check your VIN to confirm whether your specific trailer is included.

What's the safety risk?

A microwave that starts on its own can ignite contents left inside and start a fire. Keep the microwave empty when it is not in use and schedule the repair soon. Repair will be free at any franchised Keystone dealer once available.

What should I do?

  1. Check your VIN to confirm your 2013-2014 Keystone Dutchmen Voltage, Dutchmen Infinity, Alpine, Montana, Big Sky, or Fuzion is included in this recall.
  2. Review Keystone's owner notice for repair instructions before scheduling dealer work.
  3. Call Keystone customer service at 1-866-425-4369 with questions and reference recall number 14V136 when you call.
  4. Schedule the free membrane and keypad repair that stops the Frigidaire KG series microwave from starting and heating while unattended.
  5. Keep the microwave unplugged or unused until the repair is complete if your trailer is included.

What happens at the repair

At the dealer, a Keystone technician repairs the microwave membrane/keypad component covered by recall 14V136. The work is free under the recall. The repair focuses on the control keypad used by the Frigidaire microwave, because the defect can let the microwave start heating on its own when unattended. Since the remedy status is not listed as available in this data, treat the dealer repair as free once available and confirm scheduling with a Keystone dealer before bringing in the trailer.
