What is wrong
ON CERTAIN MOTOR HOMES EQUIPPED WITH SUBURBAN GLASS TOP, SEALED BURNER RANGE OR SLIDE IN COOK TOP, A THREADED CONNECTOR ON THE TUBE BETWEEN THE BURNER VALVE AND THE BURNER MAY NOT HAVE BEEN FULLY TIGHTENED DURING THE MANUFACTURING PROCESS.
What can happen
IF THE THREADED CONNECTOR IS NOT PROPERLY TIGHTENED, IT IS POSSIBLE FOR THE GAS TO LEAK FROM THE CONNECTION WHEN THE BURNER IS TURNED ON. LP GAS IS HEAVIER THAN AIR AND ANY LEAKED GAS COULD ACCUMULATE IN AN ENCLOSED OR LOW AREA IN THE MOTOR HOME. A SUFFICIENT QUANTITY OF ACCUMULATED GAS, IF IGNITED, COULD CAUSE A FIRE OR EXPLOSION.
The fix
Recall repairs are free of charge.
TRAVEL SUPREME IS WORKING WITH SUBURBAN TO HAVE THE BURNER TUBES REPLACED (PLEASE SEE 07E-050) . THE MANUFACTURER HAS NOT YET PROVIDED AN OWNER NOTIFICATION SCHEDULE FOR THIS CAMPAIGN. OWNERS MAY CONTACT SUBURBAN AT 423-775-2131 OR TRAVEL SUPREME AT 574-862-1960.

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.
