What is wrong
ON CERTAIN MOTOR HOMES, THE INDEPENDENT MOVEMENT BETWEEN THE CHASSIS FRAME AND THE MOTOR HOME BODY CAN CAUSE THE LIQUID PROPANE (LP) GAS TUBING OR THE MANIFOLD PIPE TO SPLIT OR CRACK.
What can happen
IF THE COPPER TUBING OR MANIFOLD PIPE SPLITS OR CRACKS, LP GAS WILL LEAK FROM THE COPPER TUBING. GAS LEAKAGE IN THE PRESENCE OF AN IGNITION SOURCE COULD RESULT IN A FIRE OR EXPLOSION.
The fix
Recall repairs are free of charge.
DEALERS WILL REPLACE AND RELOCATE THE LP GAS MANIFOLD AND THE COPPER TUBING. OWNER NOTIFICATION BEGAN JUNE 21, 2002. OWNERS WHO TAKE THEIR VEHICLES TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER ON AN AGREED UPON SERVICE DATE AND DO NOT RECEIVE THE FREE REMEDY WITHIN A REASONABLE TIME SHOULD CONTACT FOUR WINDS AT 1-574-266-1111.

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.
