Heartland Recalls 2011 Caliber Travel Trailers Due to Propane Leak Risk

Heartland is recalling 2011 Caliber travel trailers because the suspension may contact the propane pipe, potentially causing a gas leak and fire.

What this means for you

Illness, injury, or structural failure has been reported. Stop using the product immediately and contact the manufacturer for a refund or repair.

Our severity reasoning: The source text explicitly states that the defect could result in serious bodily injury and/or property damage, which aligns with the rubric criteria for a Severe (4) rating involving significant injury or property damage reports.

Plain-English summary

Heartland Recreational Vehicles, LLC is recalling certain model year 2011 Caliber travel trailers manufactured between July 21, 2010, and September 15, 2010. The recall involves 161 vehicles.

The suspension on these trailers has the potential to contact the liquid propane (LP) pipe under the trailer. This contact can damage the LP pipe, which could result in a gas leak. A gas leak in the presence of an ignition source could cause a fire, resulting in serious bodily injury and/or property damage.

Dealers will move the LP pipe away from the suspension to prevent contact and replace any damaged pipe. This service will be performed free of charge. The recall began on October 8, 2010. Owners may contact the warranty/service department by email at [email protected] or by phone at 877-262-8032.
