Anyone hearing about a large recall on LP gas fittings?

I hesitate to put this out before thoroughly looking into this, but the 6 minute video doesn't take up too much of your time. The just is about 22K RVs manufactured in the 2021 - 2022 model years have LP fittings made from contaminated brass. A recall is supposedly upcoming. Many of the models are under the "Thor" umbrella which Keystone sits right in the middle.

If I find out anything to the contrary, I'll update this thread.

It had to do with the "Quick Connect" propane fitting for connecting your grill.

You are probably referring to this Propane regulator Recall from Sept 2021

Carl you missed it, It is a big recall on the Quick Connect fitting on TTs, 5ers, and MH. Anything in the last couple of years that have that Quick Connect fitting.

WASHINGTON (WTVA) - More than 100,000 RVs from model years 2021 through 2023 are under recall for a fire risk with the quick disconnect fittings in the LP gas system.

I watched the video a number of time. The speaker said he would provide a link to the recall announcement but didn't. A Google Search brought up this article that Michelle & Ann mentioned
