   Equipment

   Defect, in the NHTSA record

   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, in the NHTSA record

   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, in the NHTSA record

   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.

   Equipment

   Defect, in the NHTSA record

   Suburban manufacturing company, a division of airxcel, INC., is recalling 240 portable outdoor cooktops, model sdn2h with part no. 2965a, produced between december 2007 and may 2008, . These cooktops are sold for use outside a folding camping trailer with a detachable connection to the gas supply. A section of the flexible hose connecting the gas supply from the trailer to the gas control manifold in the cooktop was determined to be inadequately protected from the heat generated by the burner.

   Consequence, in the NHTSA record

   If the hose is overheated, the hose can deteriorate and begin to leak lp gas which could possibly result in a fire.

   Remedy, in the NHTSA record

   Suburban will notify owners and repair the cooktops free of charge. The recall began on december 2, 2008. Owners can contact airxcel at 1-791-676-2326.

6. 07E050000Received 17 Jul 2007. 232 units.

   Equipment / Recreational Vehicle/Trailer

   Defect, in the NHTSA record

   Certain suburban glass top, sealed burner ranges and cook tops with serial numbers included in a range beginning with 063413053 and ending with 064704399, manufactured between august 22 and november 22, 2006, p/nos. 2950a, 2951a, 2952a, and 2953a. These ranges were installed as original equipment on certain recreational vehicles as well as sold as aftermarket equipment. A threaded connector on the tube between the burner valve and the burner may not have been fully tightened during the manufacturing process.

   Consequence, in the NHTSA record

   If the threaded connector is not properly tightened, it is possible for the gas to leak from the connection when the burner is turned on. Lp gas is heavier than air and any leaked gas could accumulate in an enclosed or low area in your recreation vehicle. A sufficient quantity of accumulated gas, if ignited, could cause a fire or explosion.

   Remedy, in the NHTSA record

   Each RV manufacturer will notify its owners and provide a remedy free of charge. Suburban will notify the owners of the aftermarket equipment and provide a free remedy. The recall began on september 6, 2007. Owners should contact their vehicle manufacturer or suburban at 423-775-2131.

   Equipment

   Defect, in the NHTSA record

   Certain suburban three burner match light gas ranges, model srna3sbbm, serial number range beginning with 063809986 and ending with 063810173, manufactured on september 21 and september 22, 2006, p/nos. 2863a and 2863d, installed as original equipment on certain recreational vehicles. The oven thermostat control valve can allow gas flow to the oven burner when the oven control knob is pushed in and not fully in the correct position to light the pilot.

   Consequence, in the NHTSA record

   If the oven control knob was depressed for some time before lighting the pilot light, the excess gas in the oven could cause a flash at the opening of the oven, possibly resulting in personal injury.

   Remedy, in the NHTSA record

   The vehicle manufacturers will notify owners and replace the oven thermostat control free of charge. Owners should contact their RV manufacturer for further information or owners can contact suburban at 423-775-2131 ext 1.
