- Summary
- On certain motor homes equipped with suburban glass top, sealed burner range or slide in cook top, a threaded connector on the tube between the burner valve and the burner may not have been fully tightened during the manufacturing process.
- Consequence
- 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
- Dodgen is working with suburban to have the burner tubes replaced free of charge(please see 07E050). Owners may contact suburban at 423-775-2131 or call dodgen at 800-247-1835.

- Customers may also contact the national highway traffic safety administration's vehicle safety hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to http://www.safercar.gov.

Has your Born Free been repaired?
Recalls here come from NHTSA’s records for the model and year. Not every vehicle of a model is included in every recall, and this site can’t see whether a repair has been done. Only a VIN lookup can tell you that.
NHTSA’s VIN search doesn’t show recalls that were already repaired, recalls more than 15 years old, or some small manufacturers’ recalls. A Born Free dealer can also check your VIN. Recall repairs are free.
