Issue: On certain travel trailers, the propane (LP) regulator could fail. If this happens, high-pressure propane could reach the appliances. Note: This recall only affects trailers equipped with a Winntec propane regulator. Safety Risk: Unregulated propane pressure can create the risk of an appliance fire.

- Accessories#2017625
465 units affected
On certain travel trailers, the laminated plastic touch pad on the top of the power tongue jack may crack and/or separate. This could result in water entering the internal circuitry of the touch pad, potentially causing unintended extension or retraction of the power tongue jack. If this were to occur while the vehicle was in motion, it could result in loss of control and increase the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will replace the "Smart Jack" power tongue jack assembly with an updated version with improved water protection.
- Electrical#2017479
514 units affected
On certain travel trailers, the bell cap wire connectors at the air conditioning unit may have been installed improperly. As a result, the wires may become detached from the connector, and could create a potential for a direct short in the electrical system, which could increase the risk of a fire causing injury and/or property damage. Correction: Dealers will remove all three bell cap wire connectors at the air conditioning unit and reattach the wires using a new style connector.
- Structure#2017225
165 units affected
On certain travel trailers, the screws that attach and secure the slide room mechanism columns to the sidewall may have been improperly installed. As a result the screw heads could shear off or pull out of the sidewall causing the column to pull away from the sidewall. If this occurs while the vehicle is in transit, the slide room could pull out, increasing the risk of crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction : Dealers will replace the slide mechanism column screws with larger ones. Interior retention clips will also be installed on each column to provide additional support.
