But there are and there are plenty of recalls. Just like with cars, owners have to file complaints with NHTSA, then if the issue is verified, deemed a highway safety problem and enough complaints received, then a voluntary or mandatory recall will happen. Most recalls are small in quantity and don't hit the news, some are reported in magazines like Trailer Life. Probably the biggest was the Dometic refer fire issue, Dometic ran ads in TL and sent recall notices to owners and repair kits to dealers, my previous unit received that repair.
