1. The recall has NOTHING to do with how well the 1200 cools(unless he does something wrong-- seem item 4).
2. IF the dealer has NOT looked at it in person, then he should NOT be quoting any parts/labor.
3. From your description, the FIRST thing to verify is IF the rear cooling unit fans are running. If they are not operating what you have experienced is what will happen. Most common failure is the fan tstat that causes the fans to not operate.
4. Depending on the specific model 1200, they may have reversed the fan control wires on the rear control board which will render those fans INOP. I have fixed at least a dozen 1200 recall refers that the Technician reversed those wires and caused inadequate cooling. The refers worked pretty well in sub 70 degree temps but when it got hotter, the refer needed those fans to keep it cool. Doug
