Recalls and investigations

  1. Equipment, appliance, oven/stove/cooktopMay 12, 2021

    Airstream, Inc. (Airstream) is recalling certain 2020 25RB, 26RB, 28RB, 30RB Flying Cloud, 25RB, 28RB, 30RB Flying Cloud, and 2021 25RB, 28RB, 30RB Flying Cloud, and International travel trailers. The stove top range was incorrectly installed in a non-sealed cabinet.

    A draft can cause the flame to enter the non-sealed cabinet, increasing the risk of a fire.

    Dealers will install panels/baffling in the cabinet to isolate negative airflow and prevent flame inversion, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed July 7, 2021. Owners may contact Airstream customer service at 1-877-596-6505 or 1-937-596-6111 ext. 7401 or 7411.

  2. Trailer hitchesOct 21, 2019

    Airstream, Inc. (Airstream) is recalling certain 2019-2020 Sport, Nest, Flying Cloud, International Serenity, International Signature, Classic, Globetrotter and Tommy Bahama trailers and 2020 Basecamp, Bambi and Caravel trailers. Due to improper welding, the Demco ball coupler installed on the travel trailers may not provide enough clamping force on the tow ball, potentially causing the coupler to separate from the tow ball.

    If the coupler separates from the tow ball, the trailer can detach from the tow vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash.

    Airstream will notify owners, and will send a temporary use adaptor that can be slipped over the ball portion of the coupler to allow owners to tow their trailers. For the final remedy, dealers will add a shim plate to the backside of the ball coupler clamp to put it in position to apply the required clamping force on the tow ball, free of charge. The recall began November 13, 2019. Owners may contact Airstream customer service at 1-877-596-6505 or 1-937-596-6111 extension 7401 or 7411.

    Airstream, Inc. (Airstream) is recalling certain 2018-2020 International, Sport, Flying Cloud, Classic, Tommy Bahama, Globetrotter, and Nest travel trailers. The forward end of the spare tire carrier may contact the ground while the trailer is moving possibly resulting in the carrier and spare tire separating from the vehicle.

    If the spare tire and tire carrier become detached it can become a road hazard, increasing the risk of crash.

    Airstream will notify owners, and dealers will install corrected spare tire carrier brackets, free of charge. The recall is expected to begin June 28, 2019. Owners may contact Airstream customer service at 1-877-596-6505 or 1-937-596-6111, extension 7401 or 7411.
