Summary:
      Double R Trailer Mfg., Inc. "Double R" is recalling certain model year 2010-2014 utility trailers manufactured April 1, 2010, through December 6, 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 trailer at the time will then be locked in and be unable to exit the vehicle, increasing the risk of injury.
Remedy:
      Double R will notify owners, and Fastec will coordinate the inspection and replacement of the cylinders, as needed, free of charge. The recall is expected to begin by in January 2014. Owners may contact Double R at 1-208-461-7544 or Fastec at 1-800-837-2505.
