Instead of taking it in for the recall work I turned the propane off at the inlet valve provided and wired a (~$80) 800 watt MSW inverter into the 125 VAC circuit so the Dometic always has AC.
Probably wouldn't work if the frig door is being cycled too often but with only DW and myself....
Be aware that this doesn't eliminate the fire threat- if the unit leaks, it can still overheat and catch surrounding materials on fire (Tim has some pics in this thread from one that overheated). That's why the recall includes 2 thermal fuses- one for fire, one for overheating.
