Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.
Jayco, Inc. is recalling certain fifth wheel trailers equipped with 1200-series Norcold refrigerators. These refrigerators contain a sensing algorithm or thermal switch designed to shut off power when high temperatures are detected to prevent fires from potential hydrogen gas leaks. However, the response times of these safety devices are not fast enough to prevent a fire from occurring.
Jayco is working with Norcold to identify and notify affected owners. Owners will be instructed to contact Norcold dealers to receive the remedy free of charge. The recall began on January 31, 2011, and owners may contact Norcold at 1-800-767-9101 for more information. For additional details, consumers should see Norcold's defect report 10E-049.
