Heartland is recalling 12,285 2022 travel trailers across Cyclone, Big Country, North Trail, and other lines because cracked quick disconnect fittings in the LP gas system can cause a gas leak.

What's wrong?

The LP quick disconnect on these 2022 Heartland travel trailers is the fitting used to connect a propane accessory to the trailer's LP gas system. It is a female connector mounted under the trailer, and its job is to seal the gas line until an appliance or hose is attached. When it is intact, gas stays contained inside the fitting and line.

On affected trailers, the brass in the quick disconnect has porosity, meaning tiny voids or weak spots in the metal. During assembly, tightening the fitting can open cracks in that weakened brass. Once cracked, the fitting no longer seals as designed, and LP gas can leak from the connection under the trailer.

The warning sign is the smell of LP gas near the quick disconnect mounted under the trailer. If you smell gas in that area, treat it as a sign that the fitting is leaking and keep ignition sources away.

What's the safety risk?

A gas leak at the LP quick disconnect increases the risk of a fire when an ignition source is present. If you smell LP gas near the fitting under the trailer, stop using propane, keep flames and sparks away, and contact the dealer for inspection. Repair is free at any franchised Heartland dealer.

The inspection, replacement parts, and labor are free under the recall. Heartland says reimbursements are handled through its general reimbursement plan. If you already paid out of pocket for the same LP gas quick disconnect fitting repair before the recall work, contact Heartland customer service or bring your repair documentation to the service desk so the claim can be reviewed.
