What this means for you

Plain-English summary

Dutchmen Manufacturing, Inc. is recalling certain model year 2013-2014 Aspen, Coleman, and Dutchmen travel trailers. The affected models include the Aspen 1400RB, 1500BH, 1600RB, 2110RBS, 2470BHS, and 3010BHDS; the Coleman CTS14FD, CTS15BH, CTS16BH, and CTS16QB; and the Dutchmen 190QB, 282RBS, 286BHGS, 318RKDS, and 816QB.

The recall is being issued because heat from the range burner may melt the propane supply hose. If the hose melts, it may leak propane, which increases the risk of a fire.

Dutchmen will notify owners, and dealers will install a copper line to the propane connection in the burner free of charge. The recall began on August 7, 2013. Owners may contact Dutchmen at 1-574-537-0600 or the NHTSA Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236.
