Well I doubt that the propylene glycol caused any "fumes" as it has a very low vapor pressure. The following is from Dow's website; they produce propylene glycol. I could see the compressor accumulating CO and dispelling it into the camper easier than any of the other thoughts.
Environmental Information
PG is not volatile, and is miscible with water. Concentrations of PG in the air are expected to be extremely low because of its low vapor pressure. It is readily biodegraded in water or soil (via aerobic and anaerobic mechanisms).
If a spill should occur, PG partitions almost equally in water and soil. Relatively little will go into the air because of its low vapor pressure. PG is not expected to bio-accumulate and is considered to be practically non-toxic to fish and aquatic invertebrates on an acute basis except at very high concentrations.
