NHTSA campaign 21V430, reported June 4, 2021, 3,072 vehicles potentially affected.

What this recall means for you

The propane regulator in certain travel trailers and fifth wheels can fail, causing propane pressure to rise. Higher pressure can enlarge the flames in gas appliances, which increases the risk of a fire.

If your RV has a Winntec model 6020 two-stage propane regulator, an authorized dealer will replace the regulator and test the propane system for leaks at no cost to you. Owner notification letters were mailed August 3, 2021. To check whether your vehicle is affected, look up your VIN for open recalls, or contact Highland customer service at 1-260-768-7771.
