DEFECT #1 - EQUIPMENT:RECREATIONAL VEHICLE
Posted on: 2006-11-14
Description
On certain recreational vehicles built with dometic two-door refrigerators, a fatigue crack may develop in the boiler tube in the area of the weld between the boiler tube and the heater pocket. A fatigue crack may release a sufficient amount of pressurized coolant solution into an area where an ignition source is present.
Consequence
The release of coolant under certain conditions could ignite and result in a fire.
Corrective Action
Coachmen is working with dometic to have these refrigerators repaired. The manufacturer has not yet submitted an owner notification schedule for this campaign. Owners may contact coachmen at 1-574-825-5821 or dometic/stericycle at 1-888-446-5157.

Customers may also contact the national highway traffic safety administration's vehicle safety hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (tty 1-800-424-9153), or go to http://www.safercar.gov.
