CARRIAGE IS RECALLING CERTAIN FIFTH WHEEL 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.
CARRIAGE IS RECALLING CERTAIN RECREATIONAL VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH DIMPLEX ELECTRAFLAME, SYMPHONY, OR OPTIFLAME BRANDED ELECTRIC FIREPLACES, STOVES, AND FIREPLACE INSERTS. THE PLUG IN REMOTE CONTROL RECEIVER FOR THE FIREPLACE CAN OVERHEAT.
ON CERTAIN FIFTH WHEEL TRAILERS, THE LIQUID PROPANE (LP) GAS SUPPLY HOSE AT THE REFRIGERATOR WAS INCORRECTLY POSITIONED RESULTING IN INSUFFICIENT CLEARANCE BETWEEN THE SUPPLY HOSE AND THE REFRIGERATOR BURNER BOX/RETURN LINE ASSEMBLY.
ON CERTAIN MOTOR HOMES EQUIPPED WITH SAMSUNG MICROWAVE OVENS, THESE UNITS WERE PRODUCED WITH A DEFECTIVE PANEL. AN ELECTRICAL SHORT CAN OCCUR BETWEEN CIRCUIT PATTERNS ON THE MEMBRANE PANEL, ESPECIALLY OVERLAPPED BY A "JUMPER" OR JUMP WIRE. THIS MAY CAUSE THE OVEN TO ACTIVATE WITHOUT PRESSING ANY KEY PADS.
THIS IS NOT REALLY A COMPLAINT AS MUCH AS INFO FOR OTHER OWNERS. I DISCOVERED A LEAK IN THE MAIN PRESSURIZED FUEL LINE BETWEEN THE TANK AND THE FUEL FILTER. IT WAS CAUSED BY THE MAIN BODY MOUNTS RUBBING AGAINST IT. I HAD TO REPLACE IT. WHEN I PUT THE NEW ONE IN I REPOSITIONED THE MOUNTS JUST 3/4" LOWER SO THE FUEL LINE & THE MOUNT NO LONGER MAKE CONTACT. I SHOULD NOT HAVE ANY MORE PROBLEMS. THIS COULD HAVE BEEN A MAJOR FIRE IF FUEL WAS SPRAYING OUT OF THE PRESSURIZED LINE. IF THERE IS ANY WAY TO NOTIFY OTHER OWNERS TO CHECK THEIR UNITS IT WOULD BE A GOOD IDEA. MY UNIT IS A CARRI-GO MODEL 2330 BUILT BY CARRIAGE AND HAS JUST 49,000 MILES ON IT. *TR
