KZRV, L.P.: 2023 Durango Travel Trailers Recalled for Missing Emergency Exit

Agency Publication Date: October 9, 2022

Summary

KZRV, L.P. is recalling approximately 42 of its 2023 Durango travel trailers because the living room slide-out window may have been manufactured without an emergency exit. This defect means that in the event of an emergency, occupants may not have a secondary way to quickly escape the vehicle. Authorized dealers will inspect the affected windows and install the necessary emergency exit hardware free of charge to ensure occupant safety.

Risk

A missing emergency exit window can trap occupants inside the trailer during a fire, crash, or other emergency situation. This delay in exiting the vehicle significantly increases the risk of serious injury or death.

What You Should Do

Identify if your trailer is affected by checking if it is a 2023 KZRV Durango model.
Check the living room slide-out window for the presence of an emergency exit handle or latch, which is typically marked in red.
If you find that the emergency exit is missing or if you are unsure, contact KZRV customer service at 1-800-768-4016 (extension 154 or 153) and mention recall number KZ-2022-05.
Contact an authorized KZRV dealer to schedule a free inspection and, if necessary, the installation of an emergency exit window.
For further assistance or more information, you can contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153) or visit www.nhtsa.gov.
