My 2019 Keystone Travel Trailer has a Safety Recall 21V-708 regarding defective Winn-Tec Model 6020 dual stage propane regulators. The recall is due to the regulators may elevate the propane pressure to the appliances and cause a fire. My 2019 Keystone Travel Trailer was manufactured in 2018 with a Winn-Tec Model 6020 dual stage propane regulator manufactured in 2017. The Safety Recall 21V-708 from Keystone RV Company letter states they will only replace the regulator if the regulator was manufactured in 2018-2021. I have talked to Keystone RV Company and they refuse to replace my Winn-Tec Model 6020 regulator unless I pay to have my regulator tested at my expense, then if tested bad, they said they may Good Will replacement. Jayco RV Company has a Safety Recall on the same Winn-Tec Model 6020 Propane Regulator. Jayco Safety Recall 21V-425 includes regulators manufactured in 2017. I do not understand the inconsistency between Keystone RV and Jayco RV Safety Recalls with the same Winn-Tec Model 6020 dual stage propane regulators. My 2019 Keystone Travel Trailer is included in the Safety Recall 21V-708 but Keystone will not replace the Winn-Tec Model 6020 regulator because the regulator was built in 2017, but if the same regulator was installed on a Jayco RV then it would be replaced by Jayco under the Jayco Safety Recall 21V-425. I have noticed a taller than normal flame on the cooktop of our RV. I would appreciate someone looking into this as I cannot see the flame on the hea

Reading this record

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.

Recall repairs are free for as long as the recall stands. Check whether a specific car still has open work at NHTSA's VIN lookup.
