***fire extinguisher recall!!!

Just received a recall notice on the fire extinguisher in my 2013 Crossroads RV.

If you have a "Kidde" brand go to there web site to see if you have one that has the recall my letter says the affected ones are from 2003 to 2018 in Keystone,Dutchman and Crossroads RV's

Mine was in the recall they will send you a new one for free.

Kidde web site: Kidde Fire Safety Products: Shop Smoke Alarms, Carbon Monoxide Detectors, Fire Extinguishers

I received the recall as well. It will have to wait until the next time I'm at the lake where my camper is.

This recall came out last month and is not just for just RV's. It is for any Kidde extinguisher that has the plastic head. I replaced 4 of them from the RV and house and received new ones in about two weeks. You DO need to ship the old one's back to Kidde (they provide a shipping label).

same here. It seems that any "RV" that has one is affected.

Yep, just got my recall notice, and sure enough mines listed.

Went to the Kidde website, filled in the form, took all of three minutes, they assure me one will be with me in 15 - 20 days.

Cool.

Now if only all issues could get addressed that efficiently....Oops.

Check the new one when you get it. The needle on my new one they was in the RED. Now I have to send it back in the return box and try again.

Received my notice also. Checked mine and it was on the recall list. Went to their website and filled out the information to receive a replacement.

Checking mine now, model number is on the list, but can't quite make out the date code. Can someone tell me how many digits long the code is? I can see 8 numbers, but only 7 are legible.

If you call them, they will take it back without a date code. I had 6 of them in various places around the house- garage, workshop, kitchen, truck, etc. 2 of them had no date code at all so since I wasn’t able to submit those two online, I called and gave them the model and seial number and they were included. I haven’t had the chance to check the one in the TT yet as it is winterized with a cover. A few weeks I’ll check that one also.

10 numbers on the side. Mine says made in Mexico above it. So the 5th number to the 9th number tells when it was made. 5th number is the month, next 2 numbers are day of month and 8th and 9th number is the year. Also mine shows 2015 on the bottom.

Mine says Made in xico
Explains why I'm missing the last 2 digits. Haha
Date on the bottom says 2013

Got busy today, I'll call Kiddie tomorrow. Thanks Papa-T

Guess I will see what the turn around time is for mine. Stopped by storage to grab extinguisher and filed today. The Mexico dates on mine are weird. 14314. They must use the Aztec calendar or something, lol.
