What's wrong?
The LP bottle ring on a 2018 Palomino Palomini recreational trailer is the metal holder that keeps the liquid propane bottle secured to the trailer frame. Its mounting brackets fasten the ring to the chassis body, so the bottle stays in place while the trailer is moving or parked. That bracket has to hold the bottle steady against road vibration and normal trailer movement.
On affected trailers, the bracket design was changed from the earlier ring. The original bracket bend pointed 90 degrees outward from the ring, while the recalled ring bends 90 degrees inward toward the ring. That inboard bend left the bracket weaker than the prior design. Over time, the bracket can break, and the LP bottle can detach from the trailer.
The warning sign is visible hardware damage. An owner or dealer can see a broken bracket fastened to the chassis body, or a missing fastener head where the bracket should be secured.

Not every 2018 Palomino Palomini trailer is on the list. Check your VIN to confirm whether your specific trailer is included.
What's the safety risk?
If the LP bottle detaches from the vehicle, it raises the risk of injury or a crash. A broken chassis bracket or a missing fastener head is a warning sign. If you see either sign, avoid towing the trailer until a dealer checks it. Repair is free at any franchised Palomino dealer.

What happens at the repair
At the dealer, a Palomino technician installs a new LP bottle ring for the liquid propane bottle mount. The replacement part and labor are free under the recall. If you already paid for a related LP bottle mount repair before the recall work, the manufacturer's general reimbursement plan covers documented expenses. Bring prior repair paperwork and payment records to the service desk so the claim can be handled through that plan.
