Issue

Issue:
On certain travel trailers equipped with a Dometic propane gas stove, there could be an odour of propane gas after a short period of use. If a user attempts to tighten the bolt for the stove's valve in order to stop the smell, they could over-tighten the bolt and cause damage to a seal. This can result in a constant gas leak.

Safety Risk:
A propane gas leak could create the risk of a fire or explosion.

Corrective Action:
Grand Design RV will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your trailer to a dealer to replace the defective hardware and perform a leak test. If you smell propane gas inside your travel trailer, you should evacuate and turn off the gas supply immediately.
