15V454000 · Equipment:Recreational Vehicle/Trailer:Lpg Systems
Reported: 2015-07-21 (July 21, 2015)
Allied Recreation Group, Inc. (ARG) is recalling certain model year 2016 Fleetwood Flair, Storm, Terra SE, Jamboree Sport, Tioga Montara, Tioga Ranger, Holiday Rambler Admiral, and Monaco Trek vehicles. The affected vehicles may have been improperly manufactured with a vertical propane gas tank regulator, instead of the horizontal gas tank regulator required. Use of the incorrect regulator can allow moisture to build up in the regulator, possibly resulting in improper operation.
Consequence: If the regulator fails to operate properly, it can cause a propane gas leak, increasing the risk of a fire.
Remedy: ARG will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the motorhomes and replace the regulator, as necessary, free of charge. The recall began on August 14, 2015. Owners may contact ARG customer service at 1-800-509-3417. ARG's number for this recall is 150708ARG.
