Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.
Open Range is recalling certain 2009-2011 Open Range, Residential, and Rolling Thunder recreational vehicles that are equipped with 1200-series Norcold refrigerators. These refrigerators contain either a sensing algorithm or thermal switch designed to shut off power when high temperatures are detected. However, the response times of these devices are not fast enough, which could prevent the power from shutting off in time to stop a fire from starting.
If a fire occurs in an affected refrigerator, it could result in personal injury and damage to the vehicle and property. To get repairs, owners should contact Norcold at 1-800-767-9101. Open Range is working with Norcold to repair the units free of charge, and owners can reference Norcold defect report 10E-049 when they call.
