Recall 12V382000

Equipment — Breckenridge · reported 25 Jul 2012 · 1,017 vehicles potentially affected

What's wrong

Dutchmen is recalling certain model year 2010 through 2013 Breckenridge brand travel trailers manufactured from May 26, 2009, through May 2, 2012, and equipped with Atwood Mobile Products (Atwood) furnaces. The furnaces were produced with a defective gas control valve which can stick in the open position.

The risk

If the gas valve sticks in the open position, gas could leak out and, in the presence of an ignition source, result in a fire.

The fix

Dutchmen will notify owners, and dealers will repair the furnaces, free of charge. The safety recall began on August 17, 2012. Owners may contact Breckenridge Warranty Service Department at 1-800-223-2376.

Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration's Vehicle Safety hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.
