Double Tree is recalling 301 2006-2013 Mobile Suite, Tradition, Select Suite, and Elite recreational trailers because Fastec-brand door locks can jam the deadbolt after the key is removed.

What's wrong?
The door lock on the 2006-2013 Double Tree Mobile Suite, Tradition, Select Suite, and Elite trailers uses a latch and an integrated deadbolt to keep the entry door closed and secured. The latch holds the door shut during normal use, while the deadbolt locks the door more firmly when the key is turned. Only FIC locks with that built-in deadbolt are covered.
The problem is in the way the Fastec-brand lock handles the key and deadbolt. The key can be removed in a position that jams the deadbolt, leaving the lock stuck instead of moving cleanly between locked and unlocked. Double Tree did not identify a separate root cause in the recall material, so owners should treat the lock assembly itself as the suspect part.
There is no warning sign before failure. The lock can work normally until the key is removed in the wrong position and the deadbolt jams.

A matching year and model does not guarantee inclusion. Check your VIN to confirm whether this recall applies to your specific RV.
What's the safety risk?
A jammed deadbolt can also jam the interior side of the door lock. Someone inside the travel trailer can be locked in and forced to use the emergency exit, which increases injury risk. There is no warning sign before the lock jams. Repair will be free at any franchised Double Tree dealer once available.
What should I do?
- Check your VIN to confirm your 2006-2013 Double Tree Mobile Suite, Tradition, Select Suite, or Elite is included in this recall.
- Wait for Double Tree's owner instructions before scheduling the free door-lock cylinder replacement.
- Reference recall number 14V776 when you contact Double Tree or a franchised Double Tree dealer.
- Avoid locking the Fastec door deadbolt until the repair is complete, since a jammed lock can trap someone inside the trailer.
- Bring the recall notice if you have it so the dealer can match the trailer to the door-lock cylinder repair.
What happens at the repair
Double Tree's filed repair is a cylinder replacement for the affected Fastec door locks. Once the dealer repair is available, a Double Tree technician will replace the lock cylinders at no charge. Parts and labor are covered under the recall. Double Tree also has a general reimbursement plan on file, so owners who already paid for a related lock cylinder repair should ask Double Tree customer service how to submit documentation for eligible out-of-pocket costs.

Frequently asked questions
What is recall 14V776?
Recall 14V776 covers 301 2006-2013 Double Tree Mobile Suite, Tradition, Select Suite, and Elite recreational trailers with Fastec-brand door locks. The key can be removed in a way that jams the deadbolt and traps someone inside the trailer.
What should I do if my 2006-2013 Double Tree Mobile Suite, Tradition, Select Suite, or Elite is on this recall?

Is the recall repair free?
Yes. Federal recall law requires the manufacturer to repair the defect at no cost, and Double Tree's remedy says dealers will replace the affected lock cylinders free of charge. Parts and labor are covered for included trailers.
What is the safety risk in recall 14V776?

What if I bought my Double Tree trailer used?
