⚠️ What's wrong
Monaco is recalling certain motor homes equipped with norcold refrigerators. A fatigue failure in the section of the cooling unit which contains the refrigerant could allow the liquid solution to slowly leak.
💥 The risk
Extended operation of a leaking cooling unit could lead to a fire from GAS which might escape.
🔧 The fix
Monaco is working with norcold to repair these refrigerators. Norcold will provide thermal switch kits to owners along with the necessary forms and instructions. The recall began on august 29, 2008. Owners may contact norcold at 1-800-767-9101 or monaco at 1-800-685-6545.
Is the fix free? Yes. Safety recall repairs are free at any authorized dealer under federal law, including parts and labor. (Vehicles more than 15 years old when the recall was announced can be excluded, but most manufacturers still fix them.)
