I HAD PICKED UP MY TRAILER FRIDAY EVENING FROM THE DEALER FOLLOWING SOME WARRANTY WORK. I DROVE STRAIGHT THROUGH FROM MARTINSVILLE TO RICHMOND, ABOUT A 4 HOUR DRIVE WITH NO STOPS. AVERAGE HIGHWAY SPEEDS OF 55 TO 65 MPH. TIRE PRESSURE HAD BEEN VERIFIED IN ALL 4 TIRES WHEN THE TRAILER WAS DROPPED OFF AT THE DEALER 6 DAYS EARLIER. A CHECK OF THE REMAINING TIRES THIS MORNING SHOW ALL AT 50 PSI (+/-1 PSI). WHEN I GOT HOME I FOUND THE LEFT FRONT TRAILER TIRE BLOWN. I DIDN'T EVEN NOTICE IT WHILE DRIVING, NOT SURE AT WHAT POINT IN THE TRIP IT BLEW. THE TRAILER DID FEEL A LITTLE "LOOSE" BUT OTHERWISE PULLED OK. THE TRAILER IS ABOUT 2 YEARS OLD AND WITH VERY FEW MILES ON IT. MOST OF OUR TRIPS ARE IN STATE. I WOULD ESTIMATE NO MORE THAN 5,000 TOTAL MILES. THE BLOWN TIRE HAS CAUSED DAMAGE TO THE WHEEL WELL AND UNDERCARRIAGE. NANKANG LOADMAX RADIAL, ST205/75R15, TUBELESS, LOAD RANGE C DOT WEUL 070 1005 N7. *TR
KZRV, L.P. (KZRV) is recalling various 2002-2018 recreational trailers equipped with Kidde Plastic-Handle or Push Button 'Pindicator' Fire Extinguishers. See a list of the affected trailer models at: https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/rcl/2017/RMISC-17V749-9547.pdf. These extinguishers may become clogged, preventing the extinguisher from discharging as expected or excessive force may be needed to activate the extinguisher. Additionally, in certain models, the nozzle may detach from the valve assembly with enough force that it could cause injury and also render the product inoperable.
