Keystone Recalls 2011 RVs Due to Propane Leak Risk in Ovens

Keystone is recalling 2011 Avalanche, Laredo, and Springdale recreational vehicles because a fracture in the oven gas line could cause a propane leak.

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 (4) involving significant injury or property-damage reports.

Plain-English summary

Keystone RV Company is recalling certain model year 2011 Avalanche, Laredo, and Springdale recreational vehicles. These vehicles are equipped with Atwood 35 Series range ovens. The recall involves a potential small fracture within the line that delivers 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. This safety recall campaign is an expansion of a previous recall (10V-478).

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. Owners may contact Keystone Customer Service at 1-866-425-4369 or the NHTSA Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236.
