Equipment:recreational vehicle/trailer:lpg systems:furnace
Problem: On certain traveltrailers equipped with suburban furnaces, the furnace exhaust vent may not be present.
Risk: When the furnace is in use this could allow carbon monoxide fumes to vent into the trailer, which could result in serious injury or death to the passengers.
Fix: Owners and dealers will inspect for the presence of the exhaust vent and for hot exhaust air escaping from the furnace exhaust. The recall began february 20, 2004. Owners should contact dutchmen at 1-219-534-1224.
Electrical system:wiring:fuses and circuit breakers
Problem: On certain fifth wheel and travel trailers, the ground fault circuit interrupter (gfi) outlet was improperly wired.
Risk: The failure of the gfi outlet to work properly could cause a person using an electrical device plugged into the gfi outlet to be exposed to an electrical shock if such person or the electrical device comes into contact with water.
Fix: Dealers will repair the outlets. If the vehicle is not mobile, dutchmen may authorize a certified electrician to perform the repair at the site of the trailer.
