The problem
On certain motor homes, the flexible gas line supplying propane to the appliances in the kitchen slide-out room may be improperly routed or supported.
The risk
Continued operation of the lp system may result in a gas leak that could result in fire or explosion resulting in serious injury or death.
The fix
Owners will be instructed not to use the lp system until they can take their motor homes into the dealers for repair. The lp gas system piping will be reconfigured to eliminate the potential for binding or kinking. The recall began on august 2, 2007. Owners may contact four winds at 1-574-266-1111.
