Problem: Coachmen is recalling certain model year 2010-2011 brookstone trailers equipped with dometic conventional microwave oven. The conventional microwave oven may not have been installed according to the manufacturers installation instructions. The blower unit should have been rotated to 180 degrees to direct the exhaust out of the front of the conventional oven, prior to installing the appliance.
Risk: This could present a risk of a fire.
Free fix: Dealers will inspect the conventional microwave oven and if the defect is present, the blower tube will be rotated to comply with the manufacturers instructions. This service will be performed free of charge. The safety recall is expected to begin during february 2011. Owners may contact coachmen at 574-825-8360.
Equipment › Recreational Vehicle/Trailer (10V617000, 2010-11-23)
Problem: Coachmen 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.
Risk: The sensing algorithm or thermal switch installed to shut off power to the refrigerator when high temperatures are detected due to a possible hydrogen gas leak may not shut off in sufficient time to prevent a fire.
Free fix: Coachmen is working with norcold to identify and notify any affected owners. Owners will be instructed to contact norcold dealers to receive the remedy free of charge. Please see norcold's defect report 10e-049 for additional information. The safety recall began on march 2, 2011. Owners may contact norcold at 1-800-767-9101 or coachmen at 574-825-8360.

A potential exists for a small fracture within the line delivering gas to the oven cavity burner. Such a fracture may cause propane gas to leak from the line.
