Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

Lippert is recalling approximately 1,043 Global entry door latches (model LK702 and part number 2021023898) used in Lippert series 3500 and 920 entry doors. The latch mechanism on these recreational vehicle doors can fail, which may prevent the door from being opened or closed from either side. Lippert will work with RV manufacturers to replace these defective latches with a new unit at no cost to the owner.

Risk

If the door latch fails during an emergency, occupants may be unable to quickly enter or exit the vehicle. This inability to evacuate or access the vehicle increases the risk of serious injury.

What You Should Do

  1. Check your RV entry door to see if it is a Lippert Series 3500 or Series 920 model equipped with a Global latch.
  2. Verify the latch model number and part number by looking for model LK702 and part number 2021023898.
  3. Contact Lippert customer service at 1-574-538-4514 to confirm if your specific unit is part of the recall and to arrange for a free replacement through your RV manufacturer. Refer to Lippert recall number 148-2023-001.
  4. If you have further questions, contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153) or visit www.nhtsa.gov.
