2001–2004 Carriage Carri Lite & 2003–2004 Carriage Carriage + 2 more recall: equipment
⚠️ What's wrong
On certain fifth wheel trailers, the liquid propane (lp) gas supply hose at the refrigerator was incorrectly positioned resulting in insufficient clearance between the supply hose and the refrigerator burner box/return line assembly.
💥 The risk
Heat from the burner box/return line assembly could cause damage to the lp gas hose. This damage could lead to failure of the hose resulting in a fire or personal injury.
🔧 The fix
Dealers will inspect and, if necessary, reposition and secure the hose. Owner notification began on june 4, 2004. Owners should contact Carriage at 1-800-895-0108.
Is the fix free? Yes. Safety recall repairs are free at any authorized dealer under federal law, including parts and labor. (Vehicles more than 15 years old when the recall was announced can be excluded, but most manufacturers still fix them.)
