Recall 10V-391: 2011 Adventure Suburban
ADVENTURE MANUFACTURING recall for equipment, reported to NHTSA on Sep 1, 2010, covering about 328 vehicles.
The problem
Adventurer is recalling certain model year 2011 adventurer motor homes and truck campers equipped with suburban gas cook stoves with sealed burners. The units involved use an aluminum tube to carry liquid propane gas from the oven control valve to the gas orifice which supplies gas to the burner. This can cause the tube to break resulting in a gas leak when the oven burner attempts to light.
The risk
A gas leak occurring in the area of the oven pilot can cause a "flash" when the gas ignites, and would cause a fire if the oven valve is not promptly turned off.
The fix
A replacement gas line will be sourced and tested to insure that the defect which created the stress point has been eliminated. This service will be performed free of charge. The safety recall is expected to begin during october 2010. Owners may contact adventure LP at 509-895-7064.
