What’s wrong with it?

HAZARDS OF LIQUID PROPANE GAS IN THE LIVING QUARTERS OF ARECREATIONAL VEHICLE INCLUDE RISK OF EXPLOSION AND FIRE WHEN EXPOSED TO A SOURCEOF IGNITION, AND RESPIRATORY DISTRESS FROM THE GAS ITSELF.

CONTAMINANTS COULD BLOCK THE INTERNAL ORIFICES IN THE ITT VALVES, CAUSING THE GAS CONTROL VALVE TO FAIL IN OPEN POSITION: THIS WOULD ALLOW UNBURNED GAS TO REACH VEHICLE’S LIVING QUARTERS.

What the record doesn’t say

  • NHTSA’s recall file doesn’t say whether anyone was hurt.
  • Which ones, by part or lot: the recall’s report on NHTSA’s site gives them where the maker did; this file gives part numbers only where its maker listed them.
  • How many have been returned or fixed isn’t in the notice.
