Equipment:recreational vehicle/trailer
Problem: Fleetwood is recalling certain class a gas and diesel motor homes, class c motor homes, conventional and fifth wheel travel trailers equipped with norcold refrigerators. A low cycle fatigue failure in the section of the cooling unit which generates the refrigerant could allow the liquid solution to slowly leak.
Risk: Extended operation of a leaking cooling unit could lead to a fire from gas which might escape.
Fix: Fleetwood is working with norcold to repair these refrigerators. Norcold will provide thermal switch kits to owners along with the necessary forms and instructions. The recall is expected to begin during june 2008. Owners may contact norcold at 1-800-767-9101 or fleetwood at 1-800-509-3418.
Equipment:recreational vehicle/trailer
Problem: Certain motor homes and travel trailers 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: Fleetwood 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 fleetwood at 1-800-322-8216.
