What's wrong?
The Dometic R1731 Cooking Stove in affected 2019-2020 Keystone Impact recreational trailers uses propane to feed the burners through a valve and manifold. The saddle valve helps control fuel flow, and the manifold distributes that propane inside the stove assembly. A small internal O-ring seals the connection between those parts so gas stays inside the system.
On affected stoves, that internal O-ring does not seal the joint as intended. Propane can escape between the saddle valve and the manifold instead of staying contained for normal burner operation. Keystone identified the old valve bolts and seals for replacement with new seals and manifold bolts.
The warning sign is the smell of propane gas near the Dometic R1731 Cooking Stove. Propane is given a rotten-egg odor so owners can notice a leak before using the appliance.
Who's affected?
The scope centers on the Dometic R1731 cooking stove, with both the oven/stove/cooktop and LPG system components included for the 2019 and 2020 Impact.
| 2019 Keystone Impact | Oven/stove/cooktop |
|---|---|
| 2019 Keystone Impact | Lpg systems |
| 2020 Keystone Impact | Oven/stove/cooktop |
| 2020 Keystone Impact | Lpg systems |
| Units affected | 309 |
The year and model narrow the scope, but the VIN decides. Check your VIN to confirm whether your specific trailer is included.
What's the safety risk?
A propane gas leak near the Dometic R1731 Cooking Stove increases the risk of a fire. If you smell propane gas or rotten eggs near the stove, stop using it, shut off the gas supply, and call a Keystone dealer before using the stove again. Repair is free at any franchised Keystone dealer.

What happens at the repair
At the dealer, a Keystone technician removes the manifold bolts and seals on the Dometic cooking stove, then installs new seals and bolts to stop the propane leak point between the saddle valve and manifold. The recall repair is available now, and parts and labor are free. If you already paid for a related manifold seal or bolt repair before the recall notice, Keystone's manufacturer reimbursement plan covers documented expenses.
