Plain-English summary

Highland Ridge RV is recalling certain 2014 Open Range LF319 fifth wheel recreational trailers manufactured between October 23, 2013, and March 10, 2014. The recall involves 12 units where the flexible gas line for the kitchen slideout section is too short.

When the kitchen area is expanded, the gas line may be pulled excessively, resulting in a gas leak. This condition increases the risk of a fire.
