The problem
On certain sports/camper trailers equipped with furnaces, the furnace was improperly installed so that the exhaust vent discharged into the occupied space of the trailer and the heated air discharged outside of the trailer.
The risk
Carbon monoxide in the living quarters could cause injury or death.
The fix
Dealers will correctly position the exhaust vent. The recall began on january 23, 2006. Owners may contact pace american at 800-247-5767.
