Norcold is recalling certain RV refrigerators for a follow-up repair to an earlier recall.
The Thetford Corp. division is recalling Models 1200, 1201, 1210 and 1211, 1200, 1201, 1210 and 1211 4-door refrigerators with cooling unit serial numbers ranging from 700000 to 13085759.
These refrigerators were installed as original equipment in vehicle model years 1997 to 2010. Other recalled refrigerators may have been purchased as replacement during the same period.
It is important to implement this safety enhancement to prevent an unsafe elevation in the temperature of the cooling unit should the unit fail in operation, the company warned. This enhancement seeks to minimize the risk of injury or death due to fire.
If you have any questions, contact the company at 800-767-9101, Monday through Friday, 9 a.m. to 10 p.m. EST.
Reminder: Register your RV and household vehicles with SamAlert and be notified via e-mail if there is a notice posted by the National Highway Transportation Safety Administration (NHTSA) that matches your vehicle type(s).
