What's wrong?
The furnace flue on a 2018 Lakota Colt is the vent pipe for the trailer's LPG furnace. Its normal job is to carry furnace combustion exhaust outside the trailer living quarters, so the furnace can heat the space without venting against an interior wall. NHTSA campaign 17V410 centers on that missing vent path.
On affected Colt trailers, the flue was not installed or the installation was not checked before the trailer shipped. Without that flue, the furnace combustion system does not vent to the outside as designed. Exhaust from the furnace is directed against the wall instead of leaving the living area through a proper exterior vent.
The warning sign is a smell from the furnace area when the furnace is running. That smell points to the furnace venting against the wall instead of outside the trailer.

What's the safety risk?
Improper furnace venting can allow carbon monoxide to build up inside the trailer, increasing the risk of injury or death. If you smell furnace exhaust near the wall or inside the trailer, shut the furnace off, leave the trailer, and call the dealer. Repair is free at any franchised Lakota dealer.
What should I do?
- Check your VIN to confirm your 2018 Lakota Colt is included in this recall.
- Contact a franchised Lakota dealer to schedule the free furnace-flue inspection that confirms furnace exhaust vents outside the trailer living quarters.
- Bring the recall notice if Lakota mailed one. If not, reference recall number 17V410 when you call.
- Avoid using the furnace until the dealer confirms the flue is installed properly.
What happens at the repair
At the dealer, a Lakota technician inspects the 2018 Colt trailer furnace flue and confirms that it is installed so the furnace combustion system vents outside the living quarters. The recall repair is available now, and the inspection is free under campaign 17V410. If the flue is not installed correctly, ask the service desk to document the finding and complete the recall repair before you use the furnace again.
