The hazard poses a serious risk of illness, injury, or structural failure. Stop using the product immediately and contact the manufacturer for a refund or repair.

Plain-English summary

Winnebago Industries, Inc. is recalling certain 2021, 2022, and 2023 Ekko recreational vehicles. The quick disconnect fittings in the LP gas system may be cracked.
