The problem
Sunnybrook is recalling certain recreational vehicles 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.

Sunnybrook is working with atwood and will replace or repair the stoves free of charge. The safety recall began on december 20, 2010. Owners may contact atwood at 1-574-266-4749 or sunnybrook at 574-825-5250.
