Problem: Jayco, Inc. (Jayco) is recalling various 2002-2016 recreational vehicles equipped with Kidde Plastic-Handle or Push Button 'Pindicator' Fire Extinguishers. A list of the affected trailer models is available at: https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/rcl/2017/RMISC-17V746-9524.pdf.

Additionally, in certain models, the nozzle may detach from the valve assembly with enough force that it could cause injury and also render the product inoperable.

Owner reports filed with NHTSA, as written (personal details removed). Complaints are not verified by NHTSA.

Unknown or Other · reported Jun 14, 2014
Atwood propane range has a malfunctioning oven pilot light and goes out when in use. I have replaced the pilot light assy at atwood's suggestion and it does not make a difference. I AM hesitant to use the range for safety considerations. I note there was a recall shortly after my oven was built on 05 27 2010 and AM thinking the original recall may not have been complete.
