What's wrong?
The propane line in a 2013-2017 Pleasant Valley T@B Travel Trailer with the 3-way refrigerator feeds gas to the refrigerator when it is running on propane. That rubber hose is supposed to stay routed away from hot or sharp refrigerator parts, so propane remains sealed inside the line.
On affected trailers, the hose strap that holds the line in place was installed in the wrong position. That leaves the rubber gas hose close enough to rub against the refrigerator fins. As the trailer moves and the refrigerator operates, that contact wears through the hose surface. Once the hose is worn, propane can leak inside the refrigerator compartment.
There is no warning sign before failure. Do not rely on a visible symptom before asking a Pleasant Valley dealer or service contact to inspect the refrigerator gas hose routing for recall 16V650.
Who's affected?
The scope runs across five model years, and each listed trailer ties back to the same LPG system lines and fittings component.

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 propane leak raises the risk of fire in or around the trailer. Until the trailer is inspected and repaired, keep the propane system shut off and schedule service soon, especially before camping or storing the trailer near ignition sources. Repair will be free at any franchised Pleasant Valley dealer once available.
What should I do?
- Check your VIN to confirm your 2013-2017 Pleasant Valley T@B Travel Trailer is included in this recall.
- Use the owner notice Pleasant Valley mailed on October 3, 2016, or call Pleasant Valley customer service to ask when the free repair is open for your trailer.
- Reference recall number 16V650 when you call or visit the dealer.
- Schedule the refrigerator-compartment gas-hose inspection and repair that fixes the propane hose rubbing against the refrigerator fins.
- Keep propane off when the trailer is parked until the gas hose has been inspected and secured.
What happens at the repair
Once Pleasant Valley opens the dealer repair, a Pleasant Valley technician will inspect the refrigerator compartment, secure the rubber gas hose, and replace any damaged gas hose as needed. The recall repair will be free once available, with parts and labor covered. The inspection focuses on the hose routing near the refrigerator fins, where contact can wear the hose. Pleasant Valley began owner notification on October 3, 2016, and the dealer work follows that notice process.
