Evergreen Recalls 2011 Ever-Lite RVs Due to Propane Leak Risk

Evergreen is recalling 2011 Ever-Lite recreational vehicles equipped with Atwood 35 Series range ovens because a gas line fracture could cause a propane leak, leading to 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 a propane leak 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 structural vehicle defects involving high-risk hazards.
