What the defect is

The l.p. Gas supply line to the water heater may contact the bottom side of the kitchen sink base drawer. The action of opening and closing the drawer may cause chafing to the l.p. Gas line which could rupture the line.

What gets fixed

THE DEALER WILL REROUTE THE L.P. GAS SUPPLY LINE TO PREVENT CONTACT WITH THE KITCHEN SINK DRAWER.

Your rights

A safety recall repair is free. Under US federal law the manufacturer must fix a safety defect at no cost to you — no charge for parts, labor or diagnosis — whether or not you are the original owner. A dealer cannot charge you for recall work, and cannot require you to have bought the vehicle from them.

That entitlement is not unlimited. It applies where the vehicle was first sold less than 15 years before the recall was announced — 5 years for tires. Past that a manufacturer may still do the repair free of charge, and many do, but they are no longer obliged to. This recall was reported on 28 March 1978.

To arrange the repair, contact any franchised dealer for the brand. If a dealer refuses the work or tries to charge for it, you can report that to NHTSA at nhtsa.gov/recalls or on 1-888-327-4236.

Everything on this page — the models listed, the build dates and the repair figures — comes from the manufacturer's filing to NHTSA and describes the vehicle line as a whole, not any individual car. Only the manufacturer can confirm whether a specific vehicle is affected, and whether its recall work has already been carried out. Check yours by VIN and read the official notice at nhtsa.gov/recalls.

Additional notes

Vehicle description: recreational vehicles equipped with center bath.system: l.p. Gas; l.p. Gas lines.consequences of defect: in this event, l.p. Gas would be free to flow into thekitchen sink base area where the furnace and range are located. This couldresult in an explosion and fire with subsequent personal injury.

Check your own vehicle

This page describes the recall, not any one car. To see which recalls cover a specific vehicle, search by make, model and year.

A VIN lookup here identifies your vehicle and shows recalls issued for that make, model and year. It cannot tell you what is still open on your individual car - only the manufacturer knows that. Search by VIN instead, or check your VIN at nhtsa.gov for whether a recall is still open on your individual car.
