Escape Trailer is recalling approximately 248 of its 2024 Escape 17, 19, 21, 23, and 5.0 travel trailers because the LED backlight circuit board in the cooktop range can fail and overheat. This defect creates a fire hazard inside the trailer, which could lead to property damage or personal injury. Owners of these specific 2024 models can have the issue resolved for free by having a dealer either remove the LED backlights or disconnect and terminate their power supply.
The circuit board used for the cooktop's LED backlighting can fail and generate excessive heat during operation. This overheating can ignite nearby components, significantly increasing the risk of a fire inside the recreational vehicle.
Dealers will disable or remove the affected LED backlight circuit.
