Vehicle recall defect – Equipment Description: Gas/Electric Absorption Refrigerators Used In Recreational Vehicles And CaMPIng Trailers. The Swivel Nut Which Is An Integral ConneCTIon Component Of A Pressure Tap Device Has “Stress Corrosion Cracking.”
Vehicle recall defect – Norcold Is Recalling Certain Gas Absorption Refrigerators Which Are Sold For Application In Recreational Vehicles. Norcold Has Recalled Models 1200Ac, 1200Acim, 1200Lr, 1200Lr, 1200Lrim, And 1201Lrim Under Previously Issued Recalls Identified As 02E-045, 08E-030, 09E-026, And 09E-027. These Recalls Covered Cooling Units Installed On The 1200 Series Product Manufactured From December 1996 Through December 2002. Recalls 08E-030, 09E-026, And 09E-027 Involved The Installation Of A Thermal Switch On The Cooling Units Manufactured From December 1996 Through December 2002. With The Action Taken With This Recall Campaign, Norcold Is Extending A Recall Of All 1200, 1201, 1210, And 1211 Models To Include Units Produced From January 1, 2003, To October 6, 2010, With Cooling Unit Models With Cooling Unit Serial Numbers From 700000 To 13085759, Non Consecutively. The Population Of Refrigerators Being Addressed Contains Either A Sensing Algorithm Or A Thermal Switch To Shut Off Power To The Refrigerator When High Temperatures Are Detected In Order To Prevent A Potential Fire. Norcold Has Now Decided The Response Times Of The Sensor Algorithm And Thermal Switch Devices To Stop Power Are Not Sufficient.

Vehicle recall defect – Norcold Is Recalling Certain Refrigerators, Models 1200Lr, 1200Lrim, And 1201Lrim, Manufactured From March 1, 2001 To December 31, 2002, With Serial Numbers Between 1273701 And 1536607, Non-Consecutively. The Units Were Installed As Original Equipment In Various Recreational Vehicles. A Fatigue Failure In The SeCTIon Of The Cooling Unit Which Contains The Refrigerant Could Allow The Liquid Solution To Slowly Leak. If A Leak Occurs And The Refrigerator Continues To Be Operated After Solution Circulation Has Ceased The Heat Source Could Generate Very High Temperatures. At Such High Temperaturesthe Cooling Unit Could Rupture.
Vehicle recall defect – Norcold Is Recalling Certain Refrigerators, Models 1200Lr, 1200Lrim, And 1201Lrim, Manufactured From March 1, 1999 To February 28, 2001, With Cooling Units Serial Numbers Between 1008701 And 1273700. The Units Were Installed As Original Equipment In Various Recreational Vehicles. A Fatigue Failure In The SeCTIon Of The Cooling Unit Which Contains The Refrigerant Could Allow The Liquid Solution To Slowly Leak. If A Leak Occurs And The Refrigerator Continues To Be Operated After Solution Circulation Has Ceased The Heat Source Could Generate Very High Temperatures. At Such High Temperatures, The Steel Material Of The Cooling Unit Could Soften And Rupture. Norcold Is Working To Identify The Number Of Refrigerators That Were Manufactured With This Condition.
