Recall 13V461000
Equipment — Lakota · reported 23 Sep 2013 · 51 vehicles potentially affected
What's wrong
Lakota Corporation (Lakota) is recalling certain model year 2013-2014 Lakota Charger C8X9 and CX9 and model year 2014 Lakota HUT H839 and Lakota Charger C27 trailers manufactured January 2013 through August 2013 and equipped with a three cubic foot refrigerator and optional recessed cook top. The cook top installation allows the refrigerator combustion system to vent into the trailer interior.
The risk
Fumes and/or gases from the refrigeration system may enter the vehicles interior, increasing the risk of asphyxiation.
The fix
Lakota will notify owners, and dealers will seal the refrigerator combustion system from the trailer interior, free of charge. The recall began on October 25, 2013. Owners may contact Lakota at 1-574-848-1636.
Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.
Vehicles covered by this recall
Whether a particular car is affected and still unrepaired depends on its VIN — a model year being listed does not mean every car of that year is included. Check any VIN free on CarLogs, or at nhtsa.gov/recalls.
Is this car's recall fixed?
Recall repairs are free at any franchised dealer, for the life of the vehicle. A CarLogs report shows the recall status for a specific VIN as reported by the manufacturer — whether it's open or repaired, and whether the fix is available yet.
