What's wrong?
The recalled part is the Dometic propane gas cooking stove installed in 2020-2021 Holiday Rambler motorhomes, including the Admiral, Vacationer, and Invicta. The stove uses propane supplied through the coach's gas system, then meters that fuel through the burner controls so it burns only at the selected burner during cooking.
On affected stoves, certain Dometic R1731, R2131, and S31 units built in the listed production period can leak gas at the cooking appliance. Dometic had not determined the exact cause when it filed the defect report, so the important owner-level fact is the location and symptom: the leak is tied to the stove, not the engine or chassis.
What you notice is a gas smell near the appliance or inside the motorhome. Dometic also reported one ignition event that damaged the piezo igniter and one control knob, so visible damage around those stove controls is another warning sign.
Who's affected?
Spans 7 Holiday Rambler and Fleetwood motorhome lines across the 2020 and 2021 model years; all have the same Dometic series S31 cooking stove.

What's the safety risk?
A gas leak increases the risk of a fire. If you smell gas from the stove or nearby appliance area, stop using the stove, ventilate the coach, leave the area, and call the dealer before using it again. Repair is free at any franchised Holiday Rambler dealer.
What should I do?
- Check your VIN to confirm your 2020-2021 Holiday Rambler Admiral, Flair, Bounder, Southwind, Vacationer, Fortis, or Invicta motorhome is included in this recall.
- Contact a franchised Holiday Rambler dealer to schedule the free Dometic propane stove repair that fixes the gas leak risk.
- Avoid using the propane stove until the repair is complete.
- Bring the recall notice if REV mailed one. If not, reference recall number 20V615 when you call.
What happens at the repair
At the dealer, a Holiday Rambler technician repairs the affected Dometic propane gas stove so the stove no longer leaks propane gas during use. Parts and labor are covered under recall 20V615. REV has a general reimbursement plan on file for this campaign. If you've already paid for a related stove repair, contact REV customer service at 1-800-509-3417 and ask what documentation the plan requires.
