What's wrong?

The recessed cooktop in the 2021-2022 Shadow Living Quarter trailer is the built-in stove used for cooking inside the living area. Its burner control valves meter propane or LP gas to the burners, so turning a knob opens, closes, and regulates the gas flow before ignition. The valves have to seal when the burner is off.

On affected trailers, the Dometic cooktop has a manufacturing defect at the stove nozzle or burner valve area. The valve can become damaged, and that damage lets gas escape instead of staying contained until it reaches the burner. A gas leak inside a trailer is serious because fuel can collect in the living space before anyone uses the appliance.

There is no warning sign before failure. Owners should not count on a smell, sound, or change in burner performance to prove the cooktop is safe.

Who's affected?

Spans the 2021 and 2022 Living Quarter trailer line, with both model years tied to the CE99-ZF recessed cooktop.

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 gas leak near an ignition source increases the risk of a fire. There is no known warning sign before the problem, so arrange the cooktop replacement soon and use caution around open flame or sparks until the repair is complete. Repair is free at any franchised Shadow dealer.

What should I do?

  1. Check your VIN to confirm your 2021-2022 Shadow Living Quarter travel trailer is included in this recall.
  2. Contact a franchised Shadow dealer to schedule the free cooktop replacement.
  3. Avoid using the cooktop until the dealer replaces it; damaged burner control valves can cause a gas leak.
