- The problem
- Certain recreational vehicles 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.
- The risk
- Release of coolant under certain conditions could ignite and result in a fire.
- The fix
- Nu wa 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. Stericycle will assist you in locating dealerships or service centers and will provide assistance with scheduling of appointments. Owners may contact dometic/stericycle at 1-888-446-5157 or nu wa at 1-620-431-2088.

Newest first, as filed with NHTSA by owners.
A fatigue crack in the boiler tube of our dometic refrigerator in our 2002 cedar creek 5th wheel camper. Resulted in a yellow residue leaking at the back of the refrigerator running down our camper, the smell of ammonia and the refrigerator was no longer cooling, all food was spoiled inside when we came up for the weekend. Frig needed to be taken out to be repaired. Kings campers came to get it and brought it back a few weeks later. They contracted it out to be fixed. We have recall papers but dometic won't honor them and kings campers is charging us $791.25. *Tr
