THE FRONT BOOT
DOMETIC RECALL
Dometic has announced recalls of MOBICOOL-branded windows and a couple of its absorption fridges . The company is asking RV owners to check both their van ’ s windows and fridges to see if this recall applies to them .
If you have had a MOBICOOL window or windowpane fitted between May and November 2022 , Dometic asks that you contact its customer support team on 1800 212 121 for further information . Due to a manufacturing defect , these windowpanes may have faulty adhesive bonding of the inner and outer panes . Adhesion can deteriorate over time , leading to delamination .
The fridge recall applies to Dometic ’ s RUA 6408X two-door 188L absorption unit , and its RUA 8408X two-door 224L absorption unit .
According to Dometic , if connected to and running on 12V DC from either the house battery or off the tow vehicle , a small wiring loom at the back of the fridge can overheat and char . Under these circumstances , if there is any foreign combustible material in the vicinity behind the fridge , it could lead to a fire .
The recalled serial number ranges are :
MB 82200938 to MB 85100130 MB 90200892 to MB 95200685 MB 00100565 to MB 03701182
Dometic has established a search function on its website to help vanners establish whether or not either of these recalls apply to them .
