How does the piece inside the control connection vibrate and break off at the flange? I can see what you are saying if it broke outside of or at the edge of a connection where you have a more...

I don't think it does. I think it is an additional problem. The screws that attach it to the stove are too short and easily work loose. If you need a heat shield and it is gone, what happens?

Maybe. But I don't know how you can know that. What causes the nuts to loosen?

I agree; I don't think it is safe fixed unless you can correct the original design flaw with upgraded tubes.

I hadn't even been on a dirt road with mine and one of the connections was broken, I suspect even just overzealous tightening would break those flanges. Add to that the heat shield falling off (and...

Did you wiggle both ends of the gas lines between burner and control? Mine apart intact until we checked movement in the line. 3 connections were fine and one was not and could not be tightened due...

Some Forest River models have had them. (Only thing I've seen on a search.) And searches could be for keywords like two-burner and glass cover.

Might be worth investigating what other RVs use the SDS2 stovetop and posting on their forums to see if anyone has had an explosion.

If you google it Escape forum comes up with complaints. No other forum does. Other trailer brands have forums, too. Why isn't it showing up?

Escape may be changing but Suburban should be recalling. Though I still wonder why there are not reports of this unit exploding in other RVs.

OK, next question, how do I check it? No smell of propane so I'm not very worried and I rarely use it, but it would be good to check.
