Problem: On certain motor homes, fifth wheel and travel trailers equipped with a two-door refrigerator manufactured by the dometic corporation, the refrigerator 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: Monaco will be working with dometic in order to repair these refrigerators (please see 06e076).
