The high pressure propane gas line from the propane tank to the stove has cracked. I just discovered this yesterday nov 1, 2011 while looking for the reason the gas to the stove was shutting down while the slide was retracted. what I found was the gas line pinched at a 180 degree angle, folded back on itself. when the slide-out IS extended the gas line straightens enough to allow gas to flow. when the slide-out IS drawn back in to move the motorhome, the gas line IS folded and pinched closed. I inspected the gas line at the fold/pinch point and discovered a crack on the outside of the high pressure rubber tubing. the slide-out has been moved, in and out, approximately 100 times since purchasing new in september 2002. the smallest hole in this line would produce a major leak resulting in possible explosion with severe bodily burns or death. I contacted ron roff in customer support at the forrest river factory and he seemed less than concerned, telling me not to worry, the gas alarm would sound if a leak should develop at the cracked area. and his position, acting in behalf of the company, IS to send me a new hose, case closed. this repair/replacement needs special tools, qualified understanding of connecting gas lines and how the gas line should be placed beneath the slide-out floor so this problem will not happen again. also, the slide-out has to be lifted to make the connections under the floor of the slide-out. I'm sure there are many other similar situations with freeland slide-out models. I sure hope these defects are corrected before someone IS blown up and dies. I turned my gas tank off and am taking it to a rv dealer. I wish I could make the repairs myself but it IS beyond my capability. thank you updated 11/10/11 *bf *tr updated ivoq 03/12/12 updated ivoq 06/05/12
