The problem
Heartland is recalling 58 my 2010 eagle ridge fifth wheel trailers. The lp line for the kitchen slide out is routed under the slide out through a hanger. The hanger was improperly routed which allows the line to rub against the tire, damaging the lp hose and wiring.

This could potentially cause a fire resulting in serious bodily injury and/or property damage.
The fix
Dealers will re-route the lp hose, wiring and hanger free of charge. The recall began on april 27, 2009. Owners may contact heartland at 1-877-262-8032.
