Crossroads is recalling 1,205,997 2003-2018 recreational trailers, including Zinger models, because certain Kidde plastic-handle or push-button Pindicator fire extinguishers can clog, require excessive force, or lose the nozzle. In a fire, an extinguisher that does not work raises injury risk, and the dealer repair is free.

What's wrong?
The fire extinguisher in these 2003-2018 Crossroads recreational trailers is portable safety equipment meant to discharge powder through a nozzle when the handle or push button is activated. It is there for the first moments of a small fire, before occupants move away and call for help.
The recalled Kidde plastic-handle and push-button Pindicator extinguishers can fail when the valve or nozzle does not work as designed. The extinguisher can clog, need excessive force to activate, or lose the nozzle from the valve assembly. If that happens during a fire, the extinguisher does not discharge as expected, and the detached nozzle can also injure someone. The recall repair is an inspection and replacement if the trailer has one of the recalled extinguishers.
There is no warning sign before failure. The extinguisher can look normal until someone tries to use it, so the model on the extinguisher matters more than how it looks from the outside.
Who's affected?
The scope spans travel trailer and RV lines from 2003 through 2018, all tied to the same equipment component.

|---|---|
| Units affected | 1,205,997 |
| Field incidents | NHTSA has logged no field incidents to date. |
A matching year and model does not guarantee inclusion. Check your VIN to confirm whether your specific RV is included.
What's the safety risk?
If a fire starts, a faulty extinguisher can fail when you need it, increasing the risk of injury. Do not rely on the recalled extinguisher during a fire. Arrange the free replacement before your next trip. Repair is free at any franchised Crossroads dealer.

What happens at the repair
For this recall, the repair path is a free replacement Kidde fire extinguisher, not a trailer repair. Crossroads will direct owners to contact Kidde, and Kidde provides the replacement extinguisher at no charge. The recall is already available, so parts and handling are covered under the campaign. The reimbursement filing says a general reimbursement plan is on file. If you already paid for a covered replacement before the recall notice, ask Crossroads customer service what documentation the plan requires for a claim.

Frequently asked questions
What is recall 17V755?
Recall 17V755 covers 1,205,997 2003-2018 Crossroads recreational trailers equipped with certain Kidde plastic-handle or push-button Pindicator fire extinguishers. The extinguisher can clog, need excessive force to activate, or have a nozzle detach, leaving it unable to discharge properly during a fire.
What should I do if my 2003-2018 Crossroads trailer is on this recall?
Check your VIN to confirm your specific trailer is included in recall 17V755. If it is, contact Keystone customer service at 1-574-535-2100 or Kidde at 1-855-262-3540 to get the free replacement fire extinguisher. Reference recall 17V755 when you call.
Is the recall repair free?
Yes. Federal recall law requires the manufacturer to provide the recall remedy at no cost, and Keystone instructed owners to contact Kidde for a free replacement fire extinguisher. The free replacement applies even if the trailer changed owners.
What is the safety risk?
The safety risk is that the fire extinguisher fails when needed during a fire. A clogged extinguisher, hard-to-activate handle, or detached nozzle can prevent discharge and increase the risk of injury. Replace the affected extinguisher through the recall remedy.
What if I bought my Crossroads trailer used?
The free replacement still applies. Recall coverage follows the trailer, not the first owner. Check your VIN to confirm whether your specific trailer is included, then contact Keystone or Kidde with recall 17V755 so they can guide the replacement process.
