Propane tank leaking at mounting bracket weld. I smelled the leak while on a stop. Located leak using leak finding tool. Contacted winnebago regarding recall due to the fact that it states 2005 winnebago voyage. They stated that my model 33v was not part of the recall. This recall is exactly what is happening with my tank and weld. Definitely a fire or explosion hazard.

What 2005 Winnebago Voyage owners say
Most recent owner complaints, unedited.
The winnebago voyage model, year 2005 that we just bought has a serious design flaw in the area where the windshield and glass come together. There is a valley where water collects and the used coach that we bought has massive rust into the frame which could lead to failure of the windshield, according to a body shop. We are in the process of trying to get the dealership (lamesa of tampa, fl) or the manufacturer, winnebago to be responsible for repairing the frame. Estimates have been $1500 to $8000. We have pictures of the rust and of the design.
