What NHTSA recorded

On certain custom living quarter or lounge trailers equipped with a two-door refrigerator manufactured by the dometic corporation, these refrigerators may have a defect in the boiler tube. Pressurized coolant solution could be released into an area where an ignition source (gas flame) is present.

Possible consequence

Release of coolant under certain conditions could ignite and result in a fire.

Remedy
