Summary

Lance Camper Manufacturing. Corp. (Lance Camper) is recalling certain 2018-2021 Lance Camper trailers (models 855S, 850, 960, 975, 995, 1062, and 1172) equipped with a Dometic propane gas stove, model R1731 or R2131 manufactured November 2018 or later or model S31 manufactured November 2018 or later. In certain stove serial number ranges, a gas leak may occur in the cooking stove.

 

Remedy

Lance Camper will notify owners, and Dometic dealers will repair the affected stoves. The recall began on December 30, 2020. Owners may contact Lance Camper customer service at 1-661-949-3322.

 

Notes

Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.

 


The Problem:

The user of a recreational vehicle or marine vessel can become aware of the potential defect when, after some period of usage, begins to smell gas near the stove when it is not in operation; if the user or other servicer then attempts to tighten the bolts that hold the valves under the stove burners, the tightening action can cause irreversible damage to the o-ring seal at the valve(s), resulting in a continuous gas leak. Such leak can result in a fire.

 

Affected Units:

The potentially affected Cooking Stoves have the following model series numbers

S31
with suffixes S31 with suffixes BMFBO, BPFBO, SPCMO, SPFMO R1731 with suffixes BBPFBO, BBPCMO, BBPFBR, BBPFMO, BDICMO, BSPCMO, BSPCMR, BSPFBO, BSPFBR, BSPFMO, BSPFMR, SLICMO, SSPCMO, SSPFBO, SSPFBR, SSPFMO, AND SSPFMR R2131 with suffixes BBPFBO, BBPCMO, BSPCBO, BSPCMO, BSPFBO, BSPFMO, BSPFMR, SSPCMO, SSPFMO,ยท

The potentially affected Cooking Stoves have serial number ranges as follows:

the S31 Cooking Stoves that are in the population of the potentially defective units are between SU02100001 -SU0210100; SU93600001 – SU93600300; and SU82200001-SU83900100.

the R1731 and R2131 Cooking Stoves that are in the population of the potentially defective units are between 81897193 through 02799381.

 

IF YOU OWN ONE OF THE UNITS SHOWN ABOVE AND YOU SMELL GAS, BECAUSE GAS CAN LEAK INTO THE RV THROUGH A DAMAGED STOVE VALVE, YOU MUST IMMEDIATELY SHUT THE GAS OFF AT THE RV LP TANK REGULATOR. THEREAFTER DO NOT ATTEMPT TO USE LP GAS WITHIN THE RV UNTIL THE STOVE VALVE IS REPAIRED AND DO NOT ATTEMPT TO USE THE COOKING STOVE.
