The short answer

NHTSA received FOREST RIVER, INC.’s report on Mar 3, 2000. Copied from NHTSA on Oct 20, 2026.

Every line below is in NHTSA’s own words, with its source beside it.

What’s wrong with it?

THIS CONDITION CAN RESULT IN LEAKAGE OF LP GAS, INCREASING THE RISK OF FIRE.

VEHICLE DESCRIPTION: FIFTH WHEEL TRAILERS EQUIPPED WITH SLIDE-OUT ROOMS THAT HOUSE THE KITCHEN RANGE AND REFRIGERATOR.

A LIQUID PROPANE (LP) GAS HOSE CONNECTS THE MAIN LP GAS MANIFOLD TO THE GAS FIRED APPLIANCES IN THE SLIDE-OUT ROOM.

THE CONNECTION OF THE HOSE TO A TEE IN THE REFRIGERATOR COMPARTMENT PUTS A ROTATIONAL STRESS ON THE CRIMPED CONNECTION BETWEEN THE FITTING THAT CONNECTS TO THE TEE AND THE HOSE ITSELF.

What should you do?

What the record doesn’t say

  • NHTSA’s recall file doesn’t say whether anyone was hurt.
  • Whether one vehicle or seat has been fixed: only its maker, or NHTSA’s lookup with a VIN, can say.
  • This recall names only model years before 2015, which have no pages here. Your VIN, at NHTSA, says which recalls are open on a vehicle.
  • How many have been returned or fixed isn’t in the notice.
