Reported: 2013-09-30 (September 30, 2013) · Model years: 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013

Aluminum Trailer Company (ATC) is recalling certain model year 2008-2013 Quest, RSX, and Raven trailers manufactured January 2008 through April 2013 and equipped with Fastec-brand door locks. It may be possible to remove the key from the lock in a way that potentially jams the deadbolt.

Consequence: If the deadbolt jams, the interior side of the door lock may also jam. A person inside the travel trailer at the time will then be locked in and be unable to exit the vehicle without using the emergency exit, increasing the risk of injury.

Remedy: ATC will notify owners, and Fastec will coordinate the inspection and replacement of the cylinders, as needed, free of charge. The recall began on November 18, 2013. Owners may contact ATC at 1-574-773-2440 or Fastec at 1-800-837-2505.

Aluminum Trailer Company (ATC) is recalling certain model year 2013 Quest trailers manufactured February 26, 2013, through April 10, 2013. Due to a design change in the Dometic-brand power awning motor assembly, the motor assembly screws may unknowingly shear.

Consequence: If the motor assembly screws shear, it is possible that the awning can unfurl unexpectedly, either while the vehicle is at rest or while in transit, increasing the risk of personal injury or a vehicle crash.

Remedy: ATC will notify owners, and Dometic staff will replace the affected motors with one of a different design. The recall began on September 6, 2013.

Aluminum Trailer Company (ATC) is recalling certain 2016-2019 Quest Stacker trailers. The guide block may fail causing the car lift to drop into the tilt position.

Consequence: While in tilt position, lift may become unseated from the ladder causing front end of lift to fall, increasing the risk of injury.

Remedy: ATC will notify owners and dealers will replace the existing guide blocks with an improved guide block made from Nylatron, free of charge. The recall is expected to begin February 10, 2020. Owners may contact ATC customer service at 1-877-441-2440, extension 342.

In the affected vehicles, the trailer walls may flex and allow the lift platform to disengage from the safety lock. If this happens when the lifting chains are slack, the lift platform may unexpectedly drop.

Consequence: If the platform unexpectedly drops, it can increase the risk of injury.

Remedy: ATC will notify owners, and dealers will install a flange to prevent the lift from slipping out of the safety lock, free of charge. The recall began on April 18, 2017. Owners may contact ATC customer service at 1-574-773-2440. ATC's number for this recall is STKR-LIFT.

Aluminum Trailer Company (ATC) is recalling certain 2021 Quest and Raven trailers equipped with a spring-assist ramp door assembly. The fastener used to secure the spring-assist ramp door cables may be the incorrect type and over-tightened, which could cause the cable bushings to fail.

Consequence: Cable bushing failure may cause the cables to retract forcefully, increasing the risk of injury.

Remedy: ATC will supply new materials and work instructions to replace the existing ramp door cable fastener assembly, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed January 14, 2022. Owners may contact ATC customer service at 1-877-441-2440, ext. 342.
