Problem KZRV, L.P. (KZRV) is recalling certain 2017-2018 Durango Gold recreational trailers.

Risk If the sofa delays using the exit window in the event of an emergency, the occupants have an increased risk of injury. Fix KZRV will notify owners, and dealers will replace the sofa back with a back that isn't as tall, free of charge. The recall began on March 19, 2018. Owners may contact KZRV customer service at 1-800-768-4016 extension 154 or 153. KZRV's number for this recall is KZ-2018-01.

Two numbers, one recall

Every safety recall carries two identifiers. KZ-2018-01 is the number Kzrv assigned in its own system: it is what appears on the owner letter, on the dealer’s service screen and on the repair order. 18V063000 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.
