Jayco recalls fifth wheels: propane tank could detach when RV moves

By Chuck Woodbury

Jayco is recalling certain 2018-2019 Eagle, Eagle HT, NorthPoint, Pinnacle, Talon and Seismic fifth-wheel trailers. The strap that secures the liquid propane (LP) gas bottle may separate from its buckle and no longer secure the propane tank.

An unsecured propane tank could detach from the trailer and increase the risk of a crash or cause propane to leak, increasing the risk of a fire.

Jayco will notify owners, and dealers will replace the propane tank securing strap with a new strap that has the correct crimping, free of charge. The recall is expected to begin August 1, 2018. Owners may contact Jayco customer service at 1-800-517-9137. Jayco’s number for this recall is 9901385.
