I called this morning, and they are sending new cylinders, keys and installation tool. All they ask it to send the old cylinders back to them.

Mine came in the mail today.. Installed in 5 minutes and packaged up the old ones to put in the mail tomorrow... Quick easy recall fix.

Looks like I got lucky, the key code for my door is not part of the list :).

Nope, can't pull the key out of the deadbolt until it's returned to the vertical position. So, all good :).

my key is "Ilco" so I guess doesn't affect me?

Ilco is a replacement key brand. If you lock looks like the one in the photo on the recall notice, they direct you to look at the key cylinder to check the key code. Also, if you have the problem of being able to pull the key out in the wrong position, they don't care what the key code is, they want to replace it.

If you have a toyhauler with the Fastec locks on the rear door they are also covered by the recall. Just installed for both entry and rear door. (And all keyed alike now)!

I've tried calling FIC for several days now. Nobody ever answers and their voicemail is full. I don't see an email address on their website. Anyone know of another way to reach them than the 800 number listed?

Edit: Tried again today and got thru. Keys on the way!
