Recall 2012011

The issue

On certain fifth wheel and travel trailers, the temperature control mechanism of the domestic water heater may have been damaged during vehicle assembly. As a result, the burner may flame up out of control when lit, which could result in a fire causing property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: Dealers will inspect and, if necessary, repair or replace the water heater.
