Posted on: 2008-08-12
Description
Skyline is recalling 22,372 my 2004-2007 alliance, aljo, celebrity, century, freestyle, layton, nomad, rampage, seaview, trailrider, and weekender fifth wheel and 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.

Consequence
If this solution is exposed to an ignition source under certain specific circumstances, it can result in a vehicle fire.

Corrective Action
Skyline 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 skyline at 1-574-294-6521.

Skyline corporation (skyline) is recalling certain model year 2006-2013 recreational vehicle travel trailers and fifth-wheel trailers manufactured january 1, 2006, through may, 31, 2013 and equipped with fastec-brand door locks.  It may be possible to remove the key from the lock in a way that potentially jams the deadbolt.
