We arrived for our first trip this year on Thursday April 23, 2026. We did not need heat until Saturday night April 25th 2026. We turned the propane bottle on and then set the thermostat to heat for it to come on. After several attempts the furnace never ignited. We turned the 1st bottle back off. Went to the second bottle on the driver's side of the camper, turned that bottle on and went in the camper to turn the gas stove on to bleed the line. Then went back to the heater and set it to come on again. It did not ignite. Went back outside to the second propane compartment and I started to smell gas. Checked the bottle connection and it was tight. Turned the propane back off and unhooked the bottles. This was about 11:00 at night and figured we'd look at it the next day in the daylight. April 26 2026, I had some camping friends and myself look at the propane lines on the driver's side compartment. I turned the propane on to see if we could smell or hear leaks. Immediately out of a very sharp bend in the hose we found a split in the hose. We turned the propane back off and examined the hose a little bit more and found the second split. We then traced the line under the camper, approximately 15 feet of hose, that went into a t/splitter. We were able to look at the hose still having the tag on it, we figured we would just order one and replace it. April 30, 2026 we arrived back at the campground and start to replace the line. My buddy climbs under the camper only to realize it is

No unusual pattern of severe incidents in the complaint record.
Complaint counts track how many cars were sold and how long they have been on the road as much as they track quality. A common model from 2013 has had a decade to accumulate reports; a rare one from last year has not. The signal worth weighing is in the severity columns, in whether the same component keeps appearing, and in whether the manufacturer eventually opened a recall for it.
Most recent recall on file: none. Source: NHTSA Office of Defects Investigation.
