The problem

Peterson is recalling 42 my 2007-2008 excel limited edition fifth wheel trailers equipped with atwood sealed burner ranges. The range and slide-in burner tubes leading from the gas manifold to the burner heads had a depression or "kink" in the exterior bend restricting proper airflow and gas mixture.

The risk

This condition could result in carbon monoxide poisoning.

Peterson is working with atwood to have the tubes replaced on these ranges (Please see 07e030). Owners may contact atwood at 1-800-348-7418 or peterson at 1-785-282-6825.
