Details

What's wrong: Allied recreation group, Inc. (arg) is recalling certain model year 2016 Fleetwood Southwind 34a, 36L, and 32vs motorhomes equipped with atwood model 0d50 on-demand water heaters. In the affected vehicles, the on-demand water heaters have a gas valve that may cause the water heater to overheat the water in the hot water supply tap.

Why it matters: The overheating of the water may result in the release of steam, possibly causing the operator is to scald themselves and increasing the risk of injury.

The fix: Arg will notify owners and atwood will provide a remedy for the hot water heater free of charge. The recall began on January 27, 2016.
