Potential Consequences:
I REPLACED A LEAKING PROPANE TANK HOSE A FEW MONTHS AFTER PURCHASING OUR TRAVEL TRAILER IN MARCH 2017. WHILE PREPARING THE TRAILER FOR A TRIP NEXT WEEKEND, I FOUND THAT THE 2ND TANK HOSE IS LEAKING PROPANE IN THE SAME WAY AS THE FIRST. I AM CONCERNED THAT THIS IS AN ISSUE WITH MORE THAN JUST MY TRAILER AND THAT THESE DEFECTIVE HOSES MAY BE ON MORE TRAILERS FROM FOREST RIVER OR OTHER MANUFACTURERS. THE HOSE IS A MODEL #GHA7 BY DEKING CORPORATION CO., LTD. LOT #610937, US WORKING MAX PRESSURE OF 350 P.S.I. THE HOSE LEAKS PROPANE AT THE HOSE CONNECTION TO THE FITTING THAT CONNECTS TO THE PROPANE TANK. MOVING THE HOSE WHILE CHANGING TANKS OR EVEN TAKING THE TANK COVER OFF RELEASES GAS AT THIS CONNECTION. ON MY SYSTEM WITH 2 TANKS AND A COMMON SWITCHABLE REGULATOR, THE TANK WITH THE DEFECTIVE HOSE CAN BE SHUT OFF AND THE OTHER TANK WILL STILL PRESSURIZE THE DEFECTIVE HOSE AND LEAK. *TT *CN *TR
