What this recall covers
- The defect
- Allied Recreation Group, Inc. (ARG) is recalling certain model year 2016 Fleetwood Flair, Storm, Terra SE, Jamboree Sport, Tioga Montara, Tioga Ranger, Holiday Rambler Admiral, and Monaco Trek vehicles. The affected vehicles may have been improperly manufactured with a vertical propane gas tank regulator, instead of the horizontal gas tank regulator required. Use of the incorrect regulator can allow moisture to build up in the regulator, possibly resulting in improper operation.
- The risk
- If the regulator fails to operate properly, it can cause a propane gas leak, increasing the risk of a fire.
- The fix
- ARG will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the motorhomes and replace the regulator, as necessary, free of charge. The recall began on August 14, 2015. Owners may contact ARG customer service at 1-800-509-3417. ARG's number for this recall is 150708ARG.

Is my vehicle affected?
Being on this list means your year, make and model fall inside campaign 15V454000. It does not mean your individual vehicle does: a campaign covers a range of VINs built in a specific window, and vehicles either side of that window are untouched.
Check the 17-character VIN from the driver-side dashboard or door jamb against NHTSA's lookup. If it is covered, the dealer must do the work free of charge, regardless of the vehicle's age or mileage.
