The issue
On certain motorhomes equipped with a Dometic Corporation refrigerator, a fatigue crack can develop in the boiler tube. This could allow the release of pressurized coolant solution into an area where an ignition source is present, which could result in a fire. Correction: Dealers will install a secondary burner housing.
Description (français)
Sur certaines autocaravanes équipées d'un réfrigérateur de marque Dometic Corporation, une fissure de fatigue pourrait se développer dans le tube de l'évaporateur. Cela pourrait permettre le déversement d'une solution de liquide de refroidissement sous pression dans un endroit où une source d'inflammation est présente, ce qui pourrait causer un incendie. Correction : Les concessionnaires devront poser un carter de brûleur secondaire.
