- The problem
- On certain motor homes equipped with a two-door refrigerator manufactured by the dometic corporation, the refrigerator may have a defect in the refrigerator 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
- Rexhall 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 the owner in locating dealerships or service centers and will provide assistance with scheduling of appointments. The recall is expected to begin on or before july 4, 2008. Owners may contact dometic/stericycle at 1-888-446-5157 or rexhall at 1-661-726-0565.
