Problem: Jayco is recalling certain model year 2011 travel trailers and fifth wheels manufactured from august 16, 2010, through october 1, 2010, equipped with atwood 35 series range ovens. A potential exists for a small fracture within the line delivering gas to the oven cavity burner. Such a fracture may cause propane gas to leak from the line.

Risk: A propane leak in the presence of an ignition source could result in a fire and/or explosion causing property damage and/or personal injury.

Fix: Jayco is working with atwood and will replace or repair the stoves free of charge. The safety recall began on november 8, 2010. Owners may contact atwood at 1-574-266-4749 or jayco at 1-574-825-0608.
