Transport Canada recalls

Structure#2016362July 13, 2016
15 units affected
Certain travel trailers outfitted with MB Sturgis propane regulators may have been assembled with an improper crimp of the retaining cap for the regulator diaphragm. The regulator sight glass could degrade, potentially causing a crack, which could result in a slow leak of propane gas. Propane gas, in the presence of an ignition source, could result in a fire and/or an explosion causing injury and/or property damage. Correction: Dealers will replace the propane regulator and associated hoses.
