NHTSA’s units figure is a total for the whole campaign; it is shown on the 5 of 15 campaigns that name the Mobile Suites and no other model, and withheld where it would count other models’ trailers.
Filed under another badge: NHTSA lists 17V753000 (model years 2005–2018) under the Drv Mobile Suite name; 16V949000 (model years 2016–2017) under the Drv Mobile Suite name; 14V776000 (model years 2006–2013) under the Double Tree Mobile Suite name; 13V369000 (model year 2014) under the Drv Mobile Suite name; 12V028000 (model years 2008 and 2010–2011) under the Drv Mobile name; 11V236000 (model year 2011) under the Drv Mobile name; 11V012000 (model years 2006–2010) under the Double Tree Mobile Suite name; 08V040000 (model year 2007) under the Double Tree Mobile Suite name only, not under Mobile Suites. They are listed because this page follows NHTSA’s records for every name in the badge family (Drv Mobile Suite, Drv Mobile Suites, Drv Mobile, Double Tree Mobile Suite, Double Tree Mobile, Mobile Suites Trailer, Mobile Suites My); they are not a record of a trailer sold as a Mobile Suites.

05 The Mobile Suites in this site’s records
Spec pages: 9 floorplans on the DRV Mobile Suites line page, for model year 2025. None of those years falls inside the federal record above, which runs 2005 to 2022.
None of the 9 Mobile Suites floorplans here has separate records for two model years, so this site measures no change between years for this line.
What was queried: NHTSA’s model list for recalls carried no model under this line’s name for the makes we queried, so no recall lookup was made under it. The complete recall file added 15 of the 15 campaigns above, and every complaint count comes from the complete complaint file.
Counts of NHTSA records matched on NHTSA’s own model field; a complaint is one owner’s unverified report, and an empty year is an empty record, not a clean one (how this record is built). Check a trailer by VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls before you buy.
