Plain-English summary

Triple E Recreational Vehicles is recalling certain 2020 Unity travel trailers, model U24RL. The recall involves 61 vehicles. The issue is with the utility compartment's inner latch mechanism, which may rotate due to vehicle motion and become locked.

A locked utility compartment prevents access to the liquid propane (LP) shutoff valve. In the event of a propane leak at the regulator, this may increase the risk of a fire in the presence of an ignition source.

Triple E will notify owners, and dealers will repair the utility compartment latch mechanism, free of charge. This recall began June 2, 2020. Owners may contact Triple E customer service at 1-877-992-9906. Triple E's number for this recall is CA#9681-1. Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.
