Recall 01V-018: 1999–2000 Holiday Rambler Aluma Lite, 2000–2001 Holiday Rambler Alumascape and 2 more
MONACO COACH CORP. recall for fuel system, other, reported to NHTSA on Jan 23, 2001, covering about 491 vehicles.
The problem
Fifth wheel trailers. The routing of the liquid propane gas (Lpg) line was inadvertently installed in the sidewall of the slideout. If the recreational vehicle is operated with the line improperly installed, there is the risk of premature failure due to abrasion, or puncture of the LPG line, which could lead to release of LPG in the recreational vehicle.
The risk
The release of the LPG inside the vehicle could lead to an explosion in the presence of an ignition source, increasing the risk of injury to vehicle occupants.
The fix
Dealers will replace the refrigerator LPG line, and if mounted in the slideout, the stove LPG line. The new line(S) will be routed in a way that makes them accessible the entire run to the appliance. Owner notification began march 29, 2001. Owners who do not receive the free remedy within a reasonable time should contact monaco at 1-800-685-6545.
