What's wrong?
The recalled equipment is the Atwood 35 Series range oven installed in 2011 Prime Time recreational vehicles. Its gas line carries propane to the oven cavity burner, where the fuel is supposed to mix with air and burn only at the burner. That line has to stay sealed from the supply connection to the burner.
On affected Prime Time RVs, the gas line that feeds the oven cavity burner has a small fracture inside it. Instead of sending all propane to the burner, the cracked line lets propane leak from the line before it reaches the burner. The recall filing does not identify a separate owner-caused problem or a maintenance step that creates the fracture.
There is no warning sign before failure. Treat the oven gas line as the problem area, even if the range appears to operate normally.
