Example complaints

Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.

“I left my motorhome parked and secured by locking deadbolt on the coach door. When I returned I could not open the door. Locksmith noted door latch deadbolt is susceptible to failure without notice leaving occupant(s) unable to open the door. The actuator rod for the deadbolt quite easily slips from the mechanism because the backing plate leaves too much room for unintended movement with the simple act of slamming the door too hard likely to cause failure. …”
