What’s wrong with it?
A leaking LP system can increase the risk of a fire.
Heartland Recreational Vehicles, LLC (Heartland) is recalling certain 2018 Pioneer recreational trailers.
The liquid propane (LP) manifold block may be mounted too close to the center shackle, allowing the shackle to hit the LP hose fitting and cause a propane leak.
