Details

What's wrong: A p-clamp was not installed during production that was intended to prevent the rubber liquid propane (lp) line from contacting the slide-out mechanism.

Why it matters: If the p-clamp was not installed, the lp line could chafe, which could result in a fire, injury, or death.

The fix: Dealers will inspect the p-clamp installation, add the p-clamp if it is missing, and replace and route correctly any chafed rubber lp line, if necessary. The recall began on August 29, 2008.
