2001–2002, 2004 Showtime Showhauler & 2000 Showtime Classic + 2 more recall: equipment

⚠️ What's wrong

Showtime conversions is recalling certain model year 2001, 2002, and 2004 Showhauler recreational vehicles; 1999 and 2000 Classic car trailers; 2006 Wildside recreational vehicles; and 2007 showtime Horse trailers, equipped with 1200-SERIES norcold refrigerators. The population of refrigerators being addressed contains either a sensing algorithm or thermal switch to shut off power to the refrigerator when high temperatures are detected in order to prevent a potential fire. The response times of the sensor algorithm and thermal switch devices to stop power are not sufficient.

💥 The risk

The sensing algorithm or thermal switch installed to shut off power to the refrigerator when high temperatures are detected due to a possible hydrogen gas leak may not shut off in sufficient time to prevent a fire.
