Problem Keystone RV Company (Keystone) is recalling certain model year 2016-2017 Keystone Summerland recreational trailers, models 1700FQ, 1750RD and 1800BH, manufactured April 8, 2016, to April 20, 2016.

Risk Vehicle owners may inadvertently overload the tires which may result in tire failure, thereby increasing the risk of a crash. Fix Keystone has notified owners, and dealers will replace the tires with ones of the proper load rating, free of charge. The recall began on May 25, 2016. Owners may contact Keystone customer service at 1-866-425-4369. Keystone's number for this recall is 16-253.

Two numbers, one recall

Every safety recall carries two identifiers. 16-253 is the number Keystone assigned in its own system: it is what appears on the owner letter, on the dealer’s service screen and on the repair order. 16V322000 is the number NHTSA filed the same recall under when the manufacturer reported it, and it is the one every federal record, this site included, is keyed on.

The repair is free by federal law for vehicles up to fifteen years old. Whether one particular vehicle is included is settled by its VIN against the manufacturer’s build list, not by its model year.

Both lookups check a VIN against the manufacturer’s own list and say whether the repair is still outstanding on that vehicle.

Which vehicles does 16-253 cover?

2016–2017 Keystone Summerland, 402 vehicles by the manufacturer’s count. A recall covers a build range, so the VIN decides whether one particular vehicle is in it.
