Recall Summary:Keystone is recalling certain model year 2010 raptor fifth wheel trailers.

If the exposed wiring is subject to road spray, it may activate the remote control panel and extend the jacks.
How to Fix:Dealers will replace the extend/retract switch with a sealed switch supplied by keystone. This service will be performed free of charge. The safety recall began on December 11, 2009.
