Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.
ShowHauler Trucks, Inc. is recalling certain recreational vehicles 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 fires caused by potential hydrogen gas leaks. However, the response times of these safety devices are not fast enough to reliably prevent a fire from occurring.
According to the recall notice, ShowHauler is working with Norcold to identify and notify affected owners. Owners should contact Norcold at 1-800-767-9101 to arrange to have the remedy applied free of charge at a Norcold dealer location.
