The defect
On certain travel trailers and fifth wheel recreational vehicles, during production it was discovered that the furnace may not be secured and the gasket that seals the furnace to the floor duct system may be missing.
The risk
The furnace could move away from the outside wall and disconnect from the exhaust outlet. if this occurs, exhaust gasses will enter the interior of the vehicle when the furnace IS operating which could lead to injury or death from carbon monoxide poisoning.
The remedy
Dealers will inspect and install the furnace correctly, securing it to the floor and adding the missing gasket free of charge. the recall began on march 14, 2005. owners may contact keystone at 1-866-425-4369.
