Problem: On certain fifth wheel and travel trailers equipped with suburban three burner match light gas ranges, the oven thermostat control valve can allow gas flow to the oven burner when the oven control knob is pushed in and not fully in the correct position to light the pilot.
Risk: If the oven control knob was depressed for some time before lighting the pilot light, the excess gas in the oven could cause a flash at the opening of the oven, possibly resulting in personal injury.
Fix: Thor is working with suburban to replace the oven thermostat control free of charge. The manufacturer has not yet provided an owner notification schedule. Owners may contact suburban at 1-423-775-2131 or Thor at 1-888-697-8467.
