What's wrong?
The propane gas line on 2018 Kzrv Durango and Sport Trek travel trailers feeds fuel to the outside kitchen option. That line is supposed to carry propane from the trailer's supply system to the cooking area while keeping the gas contained at each fitting. Sealing tape helps threaded connections stay tight so propane stays inside the line.
On affected trailers, the proper sealing tape was not installed on the propane gas line. Kzrv also says the line was not tested during production, so a bad seal or loose connection was not caught before the trailer left the factory. That leaves the outside kitchen propane line with a connection that was not confirmed to hold gas as designed.
There is no warning sign before failure. Do not rely on the model year or outside appearance to decide whether the line was built correctly, because the included VIN decides whether this recall applies.

| 2018 Kzrv Sport Trek | Lines and fittings |
| Units affected | 113 |
A matching year and model does not guarantee inclusion. Check your VIN to confirm whether your specific trailer is included.
What's the safety risk?
An untested or improperly sealed propane line can leak and increase the risk of fire or explosion. Until the system is checked, avoid using propane appliances and call the dealer for the recall repair. Repair will be free at any franchised Kzrv dealer once available.
What should I do?
- Check your VIN to confirm your 2018 Kzrv Durango or Sport Trek travel trailer is included in this recall.
- Contact Kzrv customer service at 1-800-768-4016 to confirm the dealer repair path for your VIN.
- Ask a franchised Kzrv dealer about the free propane-line sealing and leak test that addresses the unsealed or untested LPG line.
- Bring the recall notice if Kzrv mailed one. If not, reference recall number 17V303 when you call.
- Avoid using the outside kitchen propane system until the propane line is sealed and tested for leaks.
What happens at the repair
Kzrv's remedy calls for a dealer technician to seal the propane gas line for the outside kitchen system, then test the propane system for leaks. The dealer repair will be free once available, with parts and labor covered under the recall. If your 2018 Durango or Sport Trek trailer is included, ask the Kzrv dealer to complete the propane line sealing and leak test before the outside kitchen propane system is used.
