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 recall involves a structural defect that allows carbon monoxide or flammable gas to enter the living area, posing a risk of fire or poisoning, which aligns with the rubric for significant injury risks.

Plain-English summary

Gulf Stream Coach, Inc. is recalling certain 2020 Enlighten 25BH and 248BH travel trailers. The recall addresses a defect where the lower front trim strip may be missing from the refrigerator. This strip is required to make the refrigerator cabinet seal complete and provides complete isolation of the combustion system from the travel trailer interior.

Without the front trim strip, carbon monoxide or flammable unburned Liquid Petroleum (LP) gases may migrate into the living quarters of the travel trailer. This condition increases the risk of fire or carbon monoxide poisoning, which could cause occupant injury.

Gulf Stream will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the trailers and verify that the seal at the bottom of the refrigerator cabinet is installed properly, free of charge. The recall began September 23, 2020. Owners may contact Gulf Stream customer service at 1-800-289-8787 or the NHTSA Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236.
