Airstream Flying Cloud Recall 21V671: Propane Regulator May Fail, Raising Fire Risk

NHTSA campaign 21V671, reported August 27, 2021, 222 vehicles potentially affected.

What this recall means for you

Some 2021 Airstream trailers are equipped with a Winntec model 6020 two-stage propane regulator that may fail. When it does, propane pressure can increase, which can enlarge the flames in gas appliances and raise the risk of a fire.

An authorized Airstream dealer will inspect the regulator and replace it if needed, and will test the propane system for leaks. The repair is free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed October 8, 2021. If you have questions, contact Airstream customer service at 1-877-596-6505 or 1-937-596-6111 ext. 7401 or 7411, and check your VIN for any open recalls.
