What’s wrong with it?

The notice gives no hazard in a field of its own.

THE WOOD ANCHOR SCREWS HOLDING THE INBOARD END OF THE FURNACE MAY NOT HAVE BEEN INSTALLED.

THUS, THE FURNACE MAY SHIFT POSITION OR BOUNCE WHILE TRAVELING.

CONSEQUENCE OF DEFECT: FURNACE MOVEMENT COULD CAUSE FAILURE OF THE COPPER TUBE SUPPLYING LP GAS TO THE FURNACE.

THIS MAY RESULT IN A GAS FIRE OR EXPLOSION WHILE TRAVELING, PARKED, OR CAMPING.

LP GAS SHOULD BE TURNED OFF WHILE TRAVELING OR IF FURNACE IS NOT SECURED FIRMLY TO ITS MOUNTINGS.

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.
