Incoming 30 PSI Gas Valve

On my recent trip to Upper Indiana smelled a Propane leak, on my pretrip inspection.
Went the whole trip w/out gas, had to use the Electric on the Hot water, and ran the Refrig on Electric also, w/ the help of ice in the cooler.
Got back home found out w/a leak detector the Red 30 PSI Valve was leaking out the vent hole.
Replaced it for under $25.00 myself, all is sealed up tight now.
RV is just 4 years old, how long do these usually last ?

Got to go on the "tour" of the Montana Plant, very interesting, Keystone Staff very helpful with any questions.

Certain years have had problems with that valve. Apparently some were defective.
