What's wrong?

The Atwood furnace in affected 2010-2013 Breckenridge travel trailers heats the living area by controlling the flow of propane or LP gas to the burner. The gas control valve is the shutoff and metering part in that system. When the thermostat calls for heat, the valve opens so the burner can light; when heat is no longer needed, it closes to stop fuel flow.

In recall 12V382, the furnace was built with a defective gas control valve that can stick open. That failure means the valve does not close when the furnace control tells it to stop fuel flow. The problem is inside the furnace equipment, not a trim or body issue on the trailer, so the repair path centers on the furnace and its valve.

There is no warning sign before failure. An owner should not count on a dashboard light, furnace noise, or smell to show up first.

The year and model narrow the scope, but the VIN decides. Check your VIN to confirm whether your specific trailer is included.

What's the safety risk?

A gas valve stuck open can let gas leak from the furnace. If an ignition source is present, that leak can result in a fire. Until the recall repair is complete, avoid using the furnace and schedule service soon. Repair will be free at any franchised Breckenridge dealer once available.

  2. Review the Breckenridge recall notice mailed for this furnace repair, or call Breckenridge Warranty Service Department if you bought the trailer used.
  3. Contact a franchised Breckenridge dealer to ask about the free furnace repair that fixes the gas control valve sticking open.
  4. Reference recall number 12V382 when you call the dealer or Breckenridge Warranty Service Department.
