- The problem
- Certain truck campers, fifth wheel and travel 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
- Skyline 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 skyline at 1-574-294-6521.

Newest first, as filed with NHTSA by owners.
The dometic refrigerator in our skyline travel trailer stopped freezing the items in it. Then the refrigerator was only just keeping things from spooling. We didn't know what to do and then we got a recall letter from skyline stating that two of the four things listed that could happen to it were the two that was happening. It is not cooling and the freezer portion smells very strongly of ammonia. I have found out from dometic that they will not fix it they will only replace the part that is under recall. Apparently, our unit needs further parts now due to the recalled item. So now we have a refrigerator that does not work and can't afford to replace it. *Tr
