Those of you that have had fires from a Norcold fridge - how long did the response/repair time take? We are approaching the one month mark since our fire. There was minimal damage, it seems. Mostly to the outside of the coach, and smoke damage to the inside - so it seems like this should not take so long. The insurance company is trying to get a Norcold inspector out to test the unit to find the exact cause. Does any of this sound familiar to those of you having fires?

time to break out the lawyer threat.It's broken I didn't break ityour design is was flawedmake me whole (fix it now)Or I will sue you from here to hell and backie when my pain and suffering comes into play....I will be driving your car and living in your housexoxo

If I understand this correctly, your insurance company is trying to get a Norcold rep out there to ADMIT the fire was caused by a flawed design by NORCOLD so they can recoup their loss from Norcold...:S....ain't gonna happen...time to tell your insurance company you don't care whose fault it is, your coach is damaged, you pay your premiums to the insurance company and their obligation is to fix your rig before you miss too much of the camping season......Dennis

Hope your on the road soon.-paul

You will notice, not ONE person yet has responded that has had a Fire caused by a Norcold refer. The reason is, it is SO RARE. Also, there may be other reasons the fire happened in the refer area NOT caused by Norcolds part. Just because it happened at the refer area, does NOT mean it was Norcolds fault. Lets see how many respond that ACTUALLY had a fire caused by the Norcold and NOT someone that had a friend/relative, but the actual RV'er. AS to the OP's question, Their insurance company is dragging it out. "Most" reputable Insurance companies get their claimant handled, THEN go after a 2nd or 3rd party if they believe they are responsible. Doug
