Cruiser RV Viewfinder Recall 15V234: Propane Leak Into Trailer Interior Can Cause Fire

NHTSA campaign 15V234, reported April 20, 2015, 46 vehicles potentially affected.

What this recall means for you

The liquid propane compartment in the slide room of certain trailers is not properly sealed from the passenger area. If a propane leak occurs in that compartment, gas can seep into the interior of the trailer.

Propane gas inside the trailer increases the risk of a fire if it meets an ignition source. Owners should take this seriously and contact the manufacturer or an authorized dealer about the recall.

The repair is free. Authorized dealers will modify the trailer so the LP compartment is sealed from the passenger area. Owners can contact Cruiser customer service at 1-866-277-5630, and should check their vehicle identification number for any open recalls.
