Jayco Recalls 2018 Eagle Travel Trailers Due to Stove Gas Leak Risk

Jayco is recalling 2018 Eagle travel trailers because the furnace can cause the cooktop flame to go out while gas continues to flow, creating an explosion risk.

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 explicitly states that the defect may result in an explosion, increasing the risk of injury. This aligns with the rubric criterion for 'significant injury/property-damage reports' or high-risk structural/mechanical defects in vehicles.

Plain-English summary

Jayco, Inc. is recalling certain 2018 Eagle travel trailers, specifically model 333BHOK. The recall addresses a defect in the Furrion cook top where the flame can become inverted or go out when the furnace is turned on. Despite the flame going out, liquid propane (LP) gas will continue to flow to the burners.

The continued flow of LP gas to an unlit stove burner may result in an explosion, which increases the risk of injury to occupants. This hazard is triggered by the interaction between the furnace operation and the stove burners.

Jayco will notify owners, and dealers will install two wood panels to prevent air from the furnace from affecting the stove burners, free of charge. The recall began on February 14, 2018. Owners may contact Jayco customer service at 1-800-283-8267 or the NHTSA Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236.
