- Defect:
- Open range is recalling certain model year 2011 journeyer, open range, and roamer recreational vehicles manufactured from july 1, 2010, through september 20, 2010, equipped with atwood 35 series range ovens. a potential exists for a small fracture within the line delivering gas to the oven cavity burner. such a fracture may cause propane gas to leak from the line.

- Component:
- Structure:frame and members
- Manufactured:
- 08/26/2009 - 11/16/2010
- Affected:
- 207
- Defect:
- Open range is recalling certain model year 2010-2011 journeyer recreational vehicles manufactured from august 27, 2009, through november 17, 2010. a main supporting cross member was cut out to run a liquid propane line. this can cause stress cracks on the i-beams on both sides of the trailers.
