A fatigue failure in the section of the cooling unit which contains the refrigerant could allow the liquid solution to slowly leak.

Extended operation of a leaking cooling unit could lead to a fire from gas which might escape.

Carriage is working with norcold to repair these refrigerators. Norcold will provide thermal switch kits to owners along with the necessary forms and instructions.
