2000–2002 Gulf Stream Friendship & 2000–2002 Gulf Stream Scenic Cruiser + 2 more recall: equipment
⚠️ What's wrong
Gulf stream is recalling 413 my 1999-2002 SUN Voyager, Scenic cruise, Friendship, and tour master 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
Gulf stream is working with norcold to repair these refrigerators (please see 08E030). 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 for this campaign. Owners may contact norcold at 1-800-767- 9101 or gulf stream at 1-574-773-7761.
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.)
