Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.
Newmar Corporation is recalling certain recreational vehicles that contain 1200 Series Norcold refrigerators. These refrigerators are equipped with either a sensing algorithm or thermal switch designed to shut off power when high temperatures are detected to prevent fires caused by possible hydrogen gas leaks. However, these safety devices do not respond quickly enough to prevent a fire from occurring.
Owners of affected vehicles should contact Norcold at 1-800-767-9101 to determine if their refrigerator is affected. Newmar is working with Norcold to identify and notify affected owners, who will be instructed to contact Norcold dealers to receive the remedy at no charge. Additional information is available in Norcold's Defect Report 10E-049.
