Jayco is recalling specific 2011 travel trailers and fifth wheels 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

Our assessment, not the agency’s: severity 4/5 (Severe).

The hazard poses a serious risk of illness, injury, or structural failure. 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 criterion for 'significant injury/property-damage reports' or risk of such harm.

Plain-English summary

Jayco, Inc. is recalling certain model year 2011 travel trailers and fifth wheels manufactured between August 16, 2010, and October 1, 2010. These vehicles are equipped with Atwood 35 Series range ovens. The affected models include the Jay Flight, Greyhawk Class C, Jay Feather Sport, Jay Feather, Eagle Super Lite, Eagle, Jay Feather Select, Jay Flight G2, Recon ZX, and Pinnacle.

The recall is due to a potential small fracture 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.

Jayco is working with Atwood to replace or repair the stoves free of charge. The safety recall began on November 8, 2010. Owners may contact Atwood at 1-574-266-4749 or Jayco at 1-574-825-0608. Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration's Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153) or visit safercar.gov.
