Plain-English summary

Heartland Recreational Vehicles, LLC is recalling certain 2019 Heartland Pioneer recreational trailers, model BH280. The recall involves 368 vehicles where a flexible liquid propane (LP) hose was installed on the outside cooktop running into the firebox of the stove instead of a rigid metal tube supply line.

Heat from the cooktop can damage the flexible hose, which increases the risk of a fire. No injuries or deaths have been reported in connection with this defect.

The recall began on November 16, 2018. Dealers will replace the flexible LP hose inside the firebox with a rigid metal one, free of charge. Owners may contact Heartland customer service at 1-877-262-8032 or the NHTSA Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236.
