Keystone Recalls 2011 RVs Due to Propane Leak Risk in Ovens

Keystone is recalling 2011 recreational vehicles equipped with Atwood 35 Series range ovens due to a potential propane gas leak that could cause fire or explosion.

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 a fire and/or explosion causing property damage and/or personal injury, which aligns with the rubric criteria for 'Severe' (significant injury/property-damage reports or potential).

Plain-English summary

Keystone RV Company is recalling certain model year 2011 recreational vehicles equipped with Atwood 35 Series range ovens. The affected models include the Springdale, Hornet, Outback, Passport, Residence, Montana, Fuzion, Avalanche, Hideout, Energy, Mountaineer, Bullet, Summerland, Montana High Country, Raptor, Laredo, Cougar, Sprinter, and Retreat.

The recall is issued because a potential small fracture may exist within the line delivering gas to the oven cavity burner. Such a fracture may cause propane gas to leak from the line. A propane leak in the presence of an ignition source could result in a fire and/or explosion, causing property damage and/or personal injury.

Dealers will isolate and perform a drop pressure test on the oven supply tube. If the tube leaks, it will be replaced free of charge. The safety recall began on October 27, 2010. Owners may contact Keystone Customer Service at 1-866-425-4369 or the NHTSA Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236.
