Summary

Jayco, Inc. "Jayco" is recalling certain 2018-2019 Eagle, Eagle HT, NorthPoint, Pinnacle, Talon and Seismic fifth-wheel recreational trailers. The strap that secures the liquid propane "LP" gas bottle may separate from its buckle and no longer secure the propane tank.

Consequence

An unsecured propane tank could detach from the trailer and increase the risk of a crash or leak propane and increase the risk of a fire.
