What this recall covers

NHTSA's campaign record, quoted as published

The defect

EverGreen Recreational Vehicles, LLC (EverGreen) is recalling certain model year 2010-2012 Ever-Lite, and Element travel trailers. The trailers are equipped with propane cylinders that may leak gas or rupture.

The risk

Leaking propane gas, in the presence of an ignition source, may result in a fire.

The remedy

EverGreen will notify owners and dealers will replace the propane cylinder, free of charge. The recall began on July 19, 2013. Owners may contact Evergreen 1-574-825-4298.

Notes

Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.

A safety recall is issued when a manufacturer or NHTSA determines that a vehicle has a safety-related defect or does not comply with a federal motor vehicle safety standard. Recall repairs are free. Whether a specific vehicle is covered depends on its VIN — a recall listed for a model year does not necessarily apply to every vehicle of that year.
