⚠️ What's wrong

On certain class b motor homes built on chevrolet chassis and equipped with propane bbq connection. A rubber hose is connected to the propane regulator at one end and has a brass shutoff valve connector on the other "free end." the clamp used for holding the brass bbq shutoff valve is not inserted properly into its holding clamp.

💥 The risk

Since the restraining clamp is missing, the hose CAN bounce up and down. As the vehicle is driven, the connector CAN fall to the ground dragging onto the pavement and could wear a hole through the hose. Propane CAN leak out creating the potential for a fire.

🔧 The fix

Dealers will inspect the bbq hose connector assembly, check for any wear, and replace units. The units will be restrained and clamps will be added to limit the length of the free end of the hose. The recall began on november 28, 2005. Owners may contact home and park at 888-762-3873.

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.)
