- The problem
- Certain truck conversions and 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.
- The risk
- Release of coolant under certain conditions could ignite and result in a fire.
- The fix
- Renegade 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.

2000 Renegade Trailer recalls 2
Recall repairs are free. Your dealer fixes them whether or not you bought the car there - check your VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls to see if yours is done. What to do
- The problem
- Vehicle description: trailers equipped with dexter axles that were manufactured with a bearing option known as nev-r-lube. The optional hub utilizes a sealed cartridge bearing which is held in place with a retaining ring that prevents the hub from shifting on the bearing. Some of these axle assemblies were produced without the retaining ring.
- The risk
- The absence of the retaining ring can allow the hub to shift inward and may result in brake interference or tire contact to the vehicle structure. Braking problems can result in a loss of control of the vehicle. Tire contact to the vehicle structure can result in overheating and potentially lead to a fire or cause the tire to blowout.
- The fix
- Dexter axle will inspect and repair the affected axles free of charge.
