Hazard

These cylinders could be overfilled, which can cause them to release flammable propane gas unexpectedly, posing a risk of fires and explosions.

Remedy

Consumers who purchased or exchanged one of these AmeriGas propane cylinders should not use their propane appliances, and should not disconnect or transport the cylinder. Consumers should contact AmeriGas for instructions on getting their gas cylinder inspected, and replaced if needed. An AmeriGas representative will contact the consumers to arrange for a cylinder inspection and exchange it for a properly filled tank, if necessary.
