- The defect
- Jayco, Inc. (Jayco) is recalling certain 2017-2018 Jayco Designer, 2017-2021 Eagle HT, Eagle, Jay Feather, Jay Flight SLX, Jay Flight, North Point, Octane Superlite, Pinnacle, White Hawk, 2017-2020 Eagle HT, 2018-2021 Jay Flight Bungalow, 2017-2019 Octane, and 2019-2020 Eagle HTX travel trailers and fifth wheels equipped with a Winntec model 6020 two-stage propane regulator. The regulator may fail, causing an increase in propane pressure.
- What it can cause
- Increased propane pressure can enlarge the flames in gas appliances, increasing the risk of a fire.
- What the dealer does
- Dealers will replace the regulator and test the propane system for leaks, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed August 3, 2021. Owners may contact Jayco customer service at 1-800-283-8267.
- 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.nhtsa.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 87,649 vehicles this is a bigger campaign than 92% of the 15,017 vehicle recalls with a published size filed from 1995 up to this one. The middle campaign among them covers 489. It covers model years 2017 to 2021, so the oldest vehicles on it were 4 model years old when the defect was reported to NHTSA.
Jayco vehicles have been recalled over the equipment 76 times before this, most recently in March 2021 as 21V204000. That is not evidence the earlier repair failed.
The vehicles on this campaign carry 12 other recalls published here, the newest being: 25V355000 (equipment), 22V773000 (equipment), 22V301000 (equipment), 22V046000 (tires).
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 June 4, 2021 as campaign 21V425000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
