EQUIPMENT

Issued by SUBURBAN MANUFACTURING CO · Reported Aug 10, 2010 · 491 vehicles affected

What's wrong

SUBURAN IS RECALLING CERTAIN GAS COOK STOVES WITH SEALED BURNERS AND OVEN MANUFACTURED FROM NOVEMBER 2, 2009 THROUGH JULY 31, 2010, SOLD AS AFTERMARKET EQUIPMENT AND SOLD AS ORIGINALLY INSTALLED EQUIPMENT ON VARIOUS RECREATIONAL VEHICLES. THE UNITS INVOLVED USE AN ALUMINUM TUBE TO CARRY LP GAS FROM THE OVER CONTROL VALVE TO THE GAS ORIFICE WHICH SUPPLIES GAS TO THE BURNER. THE TUBE MAY BREAK RESULTING IN A GAS LEAK.

Consequence

A GAS LEAK OCCURRING IN THE AREA OF THE OVEN PILOT CAN CAUSE A FLASH WHEN THE GAS IGNITES, AND WOULD CAUSE A FIRE IF THE OVEN VALVE IS NOT PROPERLY TURNED OFF.

Remedy

SUBURBAN WILL NOTIFY OWNERS OF RECORD WHO PURCHASED THE EQUIPMENT AS AFTERMARKET AND WILL REPAIR THE UNITS FREE OF CHARGE. SUBURBAN WILL NOTIFY THE VEHICLE MANUFACTURES ON WHOSE VEHICLES THE EQUIPMENT WAS INSTALLED AS ORIGINAL EQUIPMENT AND COORDINATE WITH THOSE MANUFACTURERS TO HAVE THEIR OWNERS NOTIFIED AND THE FREE REMEDY PROVIDED. OWNERS MAY CONTACT SUBURBAN AT 1-423-775-2131.
