Weld on frame of 5th wheel attachment. Hitch I beam tore loose from cross member tubing, tearing the tubing completely apart. Crossmember broke at hitch attachment point. Had we not caught it when stopping to camp, the trailer could have broken loose from the truck injuring us or anyone behind us on the road.

The propane gas auto change over valve on my Keystone Hideout camper is not working properly. Keystone says that my camper is not covered under recall 21V427. The date code on the gas valve is N 17 49. There is a Jayco recall for the same thing, recall 21V425. The 425 recall says that the N 17 XX regulator is part of the recall. Why is my regulator not recalled ? I am the second owner, but I verified with the original owner that the gas valve has never been replaced. Does Keystone need to expand their recall date range?
