The problem
Keystone RV Company (Keystone) is recalling certain model year 2017 Keystone Carbon and Raptor fifth wheel recreational trailers, and 2016-2017 Fuzion and Dutchmen Voltage fifth wheel recreational trailers.

The risk
If the door does not open as expected, there would be an increased risk of injury to those in the door's path.
