What's wrong?
The liquid propane gas line on these Shasta Revere SHT32FE trailers carries fuel from the on-board LP tank to appliances inside the trailer, such as the stove, furnace, and water heater. The line is supposed to run along a protected path under the trailer, shielded from the road and the tires. When routed correctly, it stays intact for the life of the trailer.
On the affected units, the LP gas line was installed running through the wheel-well area instead of along the protected path. That puts the line directly in the way of rocks, gravel, and other road debris thrown up by the tires while the trailer is being towed. Over time, repeated impacts can wear through or puncture the line, and propane begins to leak. A propane leak near a hot tire or any spark raises the risk of fire.
The smell of LP gas inside or around the trailer is the warning sign. If you notice that odor, stop using the propane system and have the trailer inspected.
Who's affected?
Covers three model years of the Shasta travel trailer (2017, 2018, 2019), all built between November 2016 and July 2018 with the same LPG line and fitting assembly.

A matching year and model does not guarantee inclusion. Check your VIN to confirm whether your specific trailer is included in this recall.
What's the safety risk?
A damaged LP gas line can leak and start a fire. The smell of LP gas is the warning sign for occupants; if you notice that odor in or around the trailer, stop using it, keep ignition sources away, and call the dealer. Schedule the repair soon to have the gas line rerouted away from road debris. Repair is free at any franchised Forest River dealer.
What should I do?
- Check your VIN to confirm your 2017-2019 Forest River Shasta Revere SHT32FE is included in this recall.
- Contact a franchised Forest River dealer to schedule the LP gas line re-routing that moves the line away from the wheel-well so road debris cannot damage it.
- Reference recall number 19V394 (Forest River recall 53-0995) when you call so the service desk pulls the correct repair order.
- Call Forest River customer service at 1-574-825-8717 with questions about parts availability or scheduling.
- Avoid using the LP system and inspect the gas line for visible damage before each trip until the free repair is complete, since a damaged line can leak and increase the risk of fire.
What happens at the repair
At the dealer, a Forest River technician reroutes the liquid propane gas line so it no longer runs through the wheel well where road debris can strike it. Parts and labor are free under the recall. The reimbursement plan on file from Forest River covers documented out-of-pocket expenses if you already paid to repair or reroute a damaged LP gas line before the recall notice. Bring your receipts and any repair paperwork to the service desk when you arrive, and ask the advisor to confirm what the standard plan covers for your situation.
