What's wrong?
The table/bed base in the 2022 Keystone Cougar is the swing-up platform that lets the dinette table convert into a sleeping surface. Its hinges and welded base are supposed to hold the table or bed level while people use it, then let it move back into position for travel or seating.
On affected Cougar trailers, the hinge welds on the Red Rock table/bed base were incomplete. A weak weld leaves the base unable to carry the intended load. When weight is placed on the table or bed, the base can drop without warning, which can make the surface collapse under a person or stored item.
What you notice before failure is instability. If the table or bed base rocks, sags, shifts, or feels loose when weight is added, treat that as the warning sign. Keep weight off the base until the recall repair is complete.
Who's affected?
The affected part is the table and bed-base assembly, listed by Keystone as part number 141018-04.

What's the safety risk?
An unstable table or bed base can let the table or bed drop unexpectedly, increasing the risk of injury to anyone using it or standing nearby. If the base feels loose or unsteady, stop using that table or bed until the dealer replaces the base. Repair is free at any franchised Keystone dealer.
