Recall 05V-533: 2005–2006 Home And Park Roadtrek 170, 2005–2006 Home And Park Roadtrek 190 and 1 more
HOME & PARK MOTORHOMES recall for equipment, reported to NHTSA on Nov 9, 2005, covering about 381 vehicles.
The problem
On certain class b motor homes built on chevrolet chassis and equipped with propane bbq connection. A rubber hose is connected to the propane regulator at one end and has a brass shutoff valve connector on the other "free end." the clamp used for holding the brass bbq shutoff valve is not inserted properly into its holding clamp.
The risk
Since the restraining clamp is missing, the hose can bounce up and down. As the vehicle is driven, the connector can fall to the ground dragging onto the pavement and could wear a hole through the hose. Propane can leak out creating the potential for a fire.
The fix
Dealers will inspect the bbq hose connector assembly, check for any wear, and replace units. The units will be restrained and clamps will be added to limit the length of the free end of the hose. The recall began on november 28, 2005. Owners may contact home and park at 888-762-3873.
