What this recall covers

NHTSA's campaign record, quoted as published

The defect

Northwood Manufacturing, Inc. (Northwood) is recalling certain 2019 Arctic Fox Camper 865, Arctic Fox Camper 990, Arctic Fox Grande Ronde 28-5C, Nash Travel Trailer 29S, Nash Travel Trailer 26N, and Nash Travel Trailer 24M trailers, equipped with Dometic S31, R731, and R2131 3-burner cooking stoves. The saddle valve securing bolt may be overtightened, possibly damaging the o-ring seal and causing a continuous gas leak.

The risk

A gas leak can increase the risk of a fire.

The remedy

Dometic service centers will replace the manifold bolt and valve seal, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed August 3, 2021. Owners may contact Northwood customer service at 1-800-766-6274. Northwood's number for this recall is 2021-001.

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.nhtsa.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.
