The issue
On certain motorhomes, the bracket supporting the Liquid Propane (LP) line under the slideout room may loosen. This could damage the LP line, which could result in a leak. A propane gas leak, in the presence of an ignition source, could result in a fire or an explosion, which could cause property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: Dealers will remove the existing mounting bracket, rotate it 90 degrees, and reinstall it using a “U” bolt.
Description (français)
Sur certaines autocaravanes, le support qui soutient la canalisation de transport de propane liquide (PL) sous la pièce coulissante pourrait se desserrer. Cela pourrait endommager la canalisation de transport de PL, ce qui pourrait causer une fuite. Une fuite de gaz propane, en présence d'une source d'inflammation, pourrait causer un incendie ou une explosion, ce qui pourrait endommager des biens matériels ou blesser quelqu'un. Correction : Les concessionnaires devront enlever le support de fixation actuel, le faire pivoter de 90 degrés et le reposer à l'aide d'un boulon en U.
