Problem Keystone RV Company (Keystone) is recalling certain 2020 Bullet 34RI trailers equipped with overhead cabinets across the rear wall. The trailers may be missing an egress window in the main living area, preventing passenger exit in the event of an emergency. Risk In the event of an emergency, the missing egress window can lengthen the time that passengers need to exit the vehicle, increasing the risk of injury. Fix Keystone will notify owners, and dealers will replace the existing crank open vent window with an egress window, free of charge. The recall began March 12, 2020. Owners may contact Keystone customer service at 1-866-425-4369.

Two numbers, one recall

Every safety recall carries two identifiers. 20-373 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. 20V118000 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.
