Equipment:recreational vehicle/trailer
Problem: Certain travel trailers and motor homes equipped with a two-door refrigerator, manufactured by the dometic corporation, may have a defect in the boiler tube. Pressurized coolant solution could be released into an area where an ignition source (gas flame) is present.
Risk: Release of coolant under certain conditions could ignite and result in a fire.
Fix: Damon will be working with dometic in order to repair these refrigerators (please see 06e076). Dometic will repair these refrigerators by installing a secondary burn housing, a thermal fuse, and a melt fuse free of charge. Dometic has retained stericycle inc. To manage this campaign.

Owners may contact dometic/stericycle at 1-888-446-5157 or damon at 1-800-860-3812.

Problem: Certain motor homes fail to comply with the requirements of federal motor vehicle safety standard no. 108, "lamps reflective devices, and associated equipment." these motor homes were built without the red rear reflex reflectors and some motor homes were built without the side rear red reflex reflectors.
Risk: During night driving conditions or while the motor home is parked, the rear and side marker lights will not provide any reflex reflection to mark the vehicle's location in the dark increasing the risk of a crash.
Fix: Damon will provide the owners with a kit containing the missing reflectors and instructions for applying them to their vehicle. Owners may choose to have their dealers do the repair free of charge. The recall began on july 9, 2007. Owners may contact damon at 1-800-860-3812.
Equipment:recreational vehicle/trailer
Problem: During the winterization process on certain motor homes from november 5, 2002 through january 6, 2003, the rv antifreeze used may have been contaminated with engine antifreeze.

Fix: Dealers will ensure that the water system has been properly flushed. Owner notification began april 7, 2003. Owners who take their vehicles to an authorized dealer on an agreed upon service date and do not receive the free remedy within a reasonable time should contact damon at 1-574-264-2900.
