What's wrong?
The LP manifold on the 2017 Jayco Travel Trailer Eagle is part of the trailer's propane system. It routes LP gas from the supply side to the lines and fittings that feed propane appliances. That manifold has to sit clear of moving suspension parts, because the axle assembly travels as the trailer moves over roads.
On affected Eagle fifth-wheel RVs with the dry camping option, the axle orientation changed, but the manifold location did not. That left the manifold directly above the under-slung axle assembly and the suspension U-bolts. When the axle moves upward, it can strike the manifold, lines, or fittings. That impact can crack the manifold and let propane gas leak.
Jayco Travel Trailer's recall information does not identify a driver-noticeable symptom before the manifold is damaged. There is no warning sign before failure. Treat any known damage to the propane lines, fittings, or manifold as a reason to keep the propane system shut off until the recall repair is complete.

What's the safety risk?
An LP gas leak raises the risk of fire. Until the recall repair is complete, limit LP system use and schedule service soon, especially before camping or cooking in the trailer. The dealer will relocate the LP manifold and inspect the LP lines and fittings. Repair is free at any franchised Jayco Travel Trailer dealer.

- Call Jayco Travel Trailer customer service at 1-800-283-8267 with questions about scheduling or dealer handling.

What happens at the repair
At the dealer, a Jayco Travel Trailer technician relocates the LP manifold away from the axle and suspension U-bolts.
