During our last trip ending October 22, 2025 I had smelled propane from the bed occasionally when slide was out. I checked obvious components and found no propane leaks. After returning home and during winterization (Oct 26) I carried out a more comprehensive search for a possible propane leak. With the slide in (normal position when driving) I found the two propane hoses that supply range and water heater pinched and chafing on the slide wall. I can smell the propane slightly from area where lines are pinched. I feel if hoses are not replaced and continued use of rv a greater concentration of propane will constitute an unsafe condition. I have not had any other inspections other than myself.

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.

Most recent recall on file: none. Source: NHTSA Office of Defects Investigation.
