2011 Starcraft Trailers Recall 10V502: Oven Gas Leak

Recall 10V502 covers 98 2011 Starcraft travel and fifth-wheel trailers with Atwood range ovens that can leak propane. Free stove repair at franchised Starcraft dealers.

Starcraft is recalling 98 2011 Autumn Ridge, Travel Star, Travel Star Exp, Travel Star Exp Sport, and Lexion S-Lite trailers equipped with Atwood 35 Series range ovens because the gas line to the oven cavity burner can fracture and leak propane. A propane leak near an ignition source raises the risk of fire or explosion, with property damage or personal injury; the Starcraft dealer repair will be free once available.

What's wrong?

The Atwood 35 Series range oven in the 2011 Starcraft Autumn Ridge, Travel Star, Travel Star Exp, Travel Star Exp Sport, and Lexion S-Lite trailers uses a propane line to feed gas to the oven cavity burner. That line is supposed to carry fuel inside the oven only when the oven is being used. The burner then lights that gas to heat the oven cavity.

On affected trailers, the gas line to the oven cavity burner can develop a small crack. A crack lets propane escape from the line before it reaches the burner. That means the oven is no longer only feeding fuel to the flame; it is also releasing propane where it does not belong.

There is no warning sign before failure. If your trailer is included, treat the oven gas line as a repair item and do not rely on sight, sound, or normal oven operation to rule out the leak.

A matching year and model does not guarantee inclusion. Check your VIN to confirm whether this recall applies to your specific trailer.

What's the safety risk?

A propane leak near an ignition source can result in a fire or explosion, with property damage or personal injury. The recall does not list a warning sign before failure, so avoid using the stove and arrange dealer service. Repair will be free at any franchised Starcraft dealer once available.

What should I do?

  1. Check your VIN to confirm your 2011 Starcraft Autumn Ridge, Travel Star, Travel Star Exp, Travel Star Exp Sport, or Lexion S-Lite trailer is included in this recall.
  2. Contact Starcraft customer service or Atwood before using the range oven, since the propane-line repair instructions come through the manufacturer.
  3. Keep the range oven off until Starcraft or Atwood confirms the Atwood 35 Series stove has been repaired or replaced to stop propane from leaking at the oven cavity burner.
  4. Reference recall number 10V502 when you call, and keep any owner letter with your trailer records.

What happens at the repair

At the dealer, a Starcraft technician works with Atwood on the Atwood 35 Series range oven installed in the trailer. The remedy is to repair the stove or replace it if repair does not correct the propane gas line fracture risk at the oven cavity burner. Parts and labor are covered under recall 10V502. No separate reimbursement program is described in the recall information, so the dealer process centers on the free stove repair or replacement.

Frequently asked questions

What is recall 10V502?

Recall 10V502 covers 98 2011 Starcraft travel trailers and fifth wheel trailers equipped with Atwood 35 Series range ovens. A fracture in the propane line to the oven cavity burner can leak gas. Propane near an ignition source creates fire or explosion risk. Starcraft and Atwood will repair or replace the stove for free.

What should I do if my 2011 Starcraft Autumn Ridge, Travel Star, Travel Star Exp, Travel Star Exp Sport, or Lexion S-Lite is on this recall?

Check your VIN to confirm your specific trailer is included in recall 10V502. If it is, stop using the oven until the recall repair is complete, then contact a franchised Starcraft dealer or Atwood service contact to arrange the free stove repair or replacement.

Is the recall repair free?

Yes. Federal recall law requires the recall repair at no cost, and Starcraft's remedy says the affected Atwood stoves will be repaired or replaced free of charge. Parts and labor are covered through the recall repair path.

What is the safety risk?

The safety risk is a propane leak at the oven burner gas line. Recall 10V502 says leaked propane in the presence of an ignition source can result in a fire or explosion, with property damage or personal injury. The fix is the free stove repair or replacement.

What if I bought this Starcraft trailer used?

The free recall repair still applies. Recalls follow the vehicle, not the first owner. If you never received the 2010 owner notice, check your VIN to confirm whether your specific 2011 Starcraft trailer is included, then reference recall 10V502 when you contact the dealer or service desk.
