What is wrong
ON CERTAIN CLASS A MOTOR HOMES, HEAT SHIELDS WERE NOT INSTALLED IN THE LP TANK BAY.
What can happen
THE HEAT FROM THE HYDROHOT EXHAUST COULD PLACE EXCESSIVE TEMPERATURE ON THE EXTERIOR OF THE LP TANK AND RESULT IN UNEXPECTED VENTING OF LP GAS THROUGH THE LP TANK SAFETY RELIEF VALVE. LP GAS LEAKAGE IN THE PRESENCE OF AN IGNITION SOURCE COULD RESULT IN A FIRE.
The fix
Recall repairs are free of charge.
DEALERS WILL INSTALL A HEAT SHIELD BETWEEN THE HYDROHOT EXHAUST AND THE LP TANK AT NO COST TO YOU. THE RECALL BEGAN ON DECEMBER 5, 2006. OWNERS MAY CONTACT MONACO AT 1-800-685-6545.

A recall means the maker found a safety problem and offers a free fix; it does not mean every unit has the problem. Units affected are as reported by the company. Popular models sell more and so have more recalls and complaints. Official public data; texts are shortened. A dealer can tell whether a single vehicle still needs the repair.
