Recall history
4 distinct campaigns affect this selection. Announcement dates below are different from vehicle model years. A campaign may cover multiple years.
12V365000 · Equipment:Recreational Vehicle/Trailer:Lpg Systems:Lines And Fittings
Reported: 2012-07-31 (July 31, 2012) · Model years: 2013
Dutchmen is recalling certain model year 2013 Coleman 192 and Dutchmen 196 recreational vehicles manufactured from April 12, 2012, through July 9, 2012. These vehicles have been manufactured with the propane line in close proximity to the rear axle hanger which could be damaged by the rear axle hanger bolt during travel.
Consequence: If this occurs, a leak could develop, and in the presence of an ignition source could result in a fire and/or explosion, increasing the risk of personal injury or property damage.
Remedy: Dutchmen will notify owners, and dealers will inspect and, as necessary, replace and re-route the propane line, free of charge. The safety recall began on August 18,7, 2012. Owners may contact Dutchmen at 1-574-537-0700.
NHTSA campaign record ↗12V529000 · Equipment:Recreational Vehicle/Trailer:Lpg Systems:Furnace
Reported: 2012-10-31 (October 31, 2012) · Model years: 2013
Dutchmen is recalling certain model year 2012-2013 Aspen Trail, Coleman, and Dutchmen recreational vehicles manufactured from October 4, 2011, through October 01, 2012. These vehicles may have been manufactured without an exterior vent for the furnace.
Consequence: Without proper exhaust ventilation, the vehicle can fill with carbon monoxide resulting in asphyxiation. The heat build-up may also increase the risk of a fire.
Remedy: Dutchmen will notify owners, and dealers will inspect and, as necessary, install an exterior vent, free of charge. The recall began on November 15, 2012. Owners may contact Dutchmen at 1-574-537-0700.
NHTSA campaign record ↗13V144000 · Equipment:Other:Labels
Reported: 2013-04-16 (April 16, 2013) · Model years: 2013
Dutchmen Manufacturing Inc. is recalling certain model year 2013 Dutchmen 245RKS recreational vehicles for failing to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) Number 110, "Tire Selection and Rims." On these vehicles, the Federal identification tag lists the wrong Gross Vehicle Weight Rating and the wrong Gross Axle Weight Rating.
Consequence: Incorrect tag information could result in overloading of the vehicle, causing tire or axle failure, resulting in loss of vehicle control, increasing the risk of a crash.
Remedy: Dutchmen will notify owners and mail replacement labels with corrected information, free of charge. The recall began on April 25, 2013. Owners may contact Dutchmen at 1-574-537-0700.
NHTSA campaign record ↗13V293000 · Equipment
Reported: 2013-07-03 (July 3, 2013) · Model years: 2013, 2014

Heat from the range burner may melt the propane supply hose.
Consequence: If the hose melts it may leak propane, increasing the risk of a fire.
Remedy: Dutchmen will notify owners and dealers will install a copper line to the propane connection in the burner, free of charge. The recall began on August 7, 2013. Owners may contact Dutchmen at 1-574-537-0600. Dutchmen's recall number is 13-195.

Emerging complaint spikes
Complete months in the latest six months with at least 10 complaints, at least twice the preceding 12-month average, and at least three square-root deviations above that average.
This is a descriptive screening rule, not a statistical defect finding. Publicity and reporting changes can increase submissions.
No complete months meet the spike thresholds for this selection.
Equal-age model-year comparison
Model-wide cumulative reports during the first three or five calendar years, starting with the model year (age 0). Only fully elapsed windows are compared.
2013: 5 complaints · 2014: 0 complaints
