The problem
Crossroads is recalling certain model year 2011 zinger and sunset trail trailers manufactured from august 15, 2010, through september 29, 2010, equipped with atwood 35 series range ovens. A potential exists for a small fracture within the line delivering gas to the oven cavity burner. Such a fracture may cause propane gas to leak from the line.
The risk
A propane leak in the presence of an ignition source could result in a fire and/or explosion causing property damage and/or personal injury.
The fix
Crossroads is working with atwood and will replace or repair the stoves free of charge. All the affected vehicles are contained at crossroads' dealerships. Therefore, an owner notification letter will not be issued for this campaign. Owners may contact atwood at 1-574-266-4749 or crossroads at 1-888-226-7496.

Owners may also contact the national highway traffic safety administration's vehicle safety hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (tty 1-800-424-9153), or go to <a href=http://www.Safercar.Gov>http://www.Safercar.Gov</a> .
