2006 TRIAL BOSS SOONER; 2007 TRIAL BOSS BLOOMER
Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.
Trail Boss Conversions, Inc. is recalling two horse trailer models—the 2006 Sooner and 2007 Bloomer—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 to prevent fire from a possible hydrogen gas leak. However, the response times of these safety devices are not fast enough to shut off power in sufficient time to prevent a fire from occurring.
Trail Boss is working with Norcold to identify and notify affected owners. According to the recall notice, owners should contact Norcold at 1-800-767-9101 to be identified as owners of affected units and to receive instructions on how to contact Norcold dealers for the remedy, which will be provided free of charge.
