- The defect
- Jayco, Inc. (Jayco) is recalling certain 2019-2020 Jayco White Hawk, Jay Flight SLX, Jay Feather, and Jay Flight travel trailers equipped with Dometic 3 burner cooking stoves. The saddle valve securing bolt may be overtightened, possibly damaging the o-ring seal and causing a continuous gas leak.
- What it can cause
- A gas leak can increase the risk of a fire.
- What the dealer does
- Jayco will notify owners, and Dometic service centers will install a remedy kit of gaskets, washers, thread locker bolts, and two round orange labels, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed on May 3, 2021. Owners may contact Jayco customer service at 1-800-283-8267. Jayco's number for this recall is 9901566.
- NHTSA's note
- 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.safercar.gov.
The repair is free, whatever the age or mileage of the vehicle, and whether or not you are the original owner.
Which vehicles
A recall reaches a range of VINs inside these model years, not every car built in them. Yours may not be covered even if it is listed here, and the only way to find out is NHTSA's own VIN lookup .

How this campaign compares
At 18,636 vehicles this is a bigger campaign than 83% of the 19,818 vehicle recalls filed since 1995 whose size NHTSA published. The middle campaign on file covers 472. It covers model years 2019 to 2020, so the oldest vehicles on it were 2 model years old when the defect was reported to NHTSA.
Jayco vehicles have been recalled over the equipment 74 times before this, most recently in March 2021 as 21V180000. That is not evidence the earlier repair failed.
The vehicles on this campaign carry 3 other recalls published here: 21V425000 (equipment), 20V336000 (visibility), 20V238000 (equipment).
Check your own car
A VIN check is the only answer for a specific vehicle, and it also shows every other open recall on it, which is usually the reason it is worth doing rather than reading one campaign.
Filed by Jayco, Inc. with NHTSA on March 17, 2021 as campaign 21V184000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
