Equipment: “Last october I was towing my rv home from the last camp outing for the season using my dometic refrigerator on lp gas not knowing about the recall on this unit. During this trip home at some point lp gas run out of gas. Lucky for my family & I because the refrigerator unit failed. At this I did not know the unit had failed. In december of 2007 I received a recall letter from Fleetwood, at this time the rv was winterized . I decided to take my rv into a service center [ all american coach] in the spring to have the recall part replaced on the refrigerator. …”

The bolts that held the body to the frame broke or sheared off under pressure while driving with the trailer in tow. While driving there was a piece of material sliding out of the trailer unit. The consumer pulled over to check and discovered the front end had opened up nearly 3 inches, and first thought the frame was the problem. The consumer continued to drive slowly and watched this carefully. The vehicle was driven to a dealer and there the unit was opened, and took apart the nose piece off the trailer and noted bolts broke off. …”
