Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.

Plain-English summary

Grand Design RV, LLC is recalling certain model year 2016-2017 Imagine and Reflection recreational trailers manufactured between January 15, 2016, and May 4, 2016. The recall involves approximately 1,300 units. The defect involves the MB Sturgis LP regulator, which may allow propane gas to leak into the regulator sight glass. This leakage can cause the sight glass to degrade and potentially crack.

If the indicator sight glass cracks, propane gas may leak out, increasing the risk of a fire. No specific injuries or fatalities were reported in the source text.

Grand Design will notify owners, and dealers will replace the LP regulator kit free of charge. The recall began on June 6, 2016. Owners may contact Grand Design customer service at 1-574-825-9679 or the NHTSA Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236.
