The problem
Crossroads rv is recalling 17,353 my 2004-2007 cruiser, paradise pointe, my 2004 silverado, my 2005-2007 zinger, cross terrain, and my 2006-2007 belair, crossforce, and crossfire 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.
The risk
If this solution is exposed to an ignition source under certain specific circumstances, it can result in a vehicle fire.
The fix
Crossroads rv is working with dometic to repair these refrigerators (please see 08e032). 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 the owner 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 crossroads rv at 1-260-593-2866.
