Defect description
Triple E Recreational Vehicles (Triple E) is recalling certain 2020 Unity travel trailers, model U24RL. The utility compartment's inner latch mechanism may rotate due to vehicle motion, becoming locked.
Safety risk
A locked utility compartment prevents access to the liquid propane (LP) shutoff valve. In the event of a propane leak at the regulator, this may increase the risk of a fire in the presence of an ignition source.
Manufacturer remedy
