What this recall means for you

A gas leak increases the risk of a fire. If you own an affected trailer, contact Braxton Creek customer service at 1-260-768-7932 and reference recall number 20E071. The remedy is free: Braxton Creek will install a kit of gaskets, washers, thread locker bolts, and two round orange labels. Owner notification letters were mailed July 2, 2021.
