2005 Rexhall Aerbus recall: equipment
⚠️ What's wrong
Rexhall is recalling 6 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
Rexhall is working with norcold to repair these refrigerators (please see 08E-030). Norcold will provide thermal switch kits to owners along with the necessary forms and instructions. The manufacturer has not yet provided an owner notification schedule. Owners may contact norcold at 1-800-767-9101 or rexhall at 661-726-0565.
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.)
