Intermittent Problem with Fridge
I have a Dometic (RML 8555) gas/12V/120V fridge that occasionally stops working on gas or 120V (not sure about 12V since seldom us it). It only happens a few times a year and can happen at anytime - ...

Join the party. RML8555's as well as it's smaller 4.3 cf sibling were installed in many Escape trailers, they all have the same problem you are talking about. Hundreds of pages on it.

Dometic is well aware of the problem, make sure you bring yours in for service while still under warranty in case they actually find a fix for it. At the moment we're waiting to see if Dometic comes out with a fix, supposedly they are getting ready to come out with a new door for them. Meanwhile some folks have taken it onto themselves trying a multitude of mods to try and alleviate the problem. Awaiting results as folks travel to the south for the winter, although nothing has really worked to this point. Last I read Dometic is designing a new door. Escape went to a 2 door model of the same fridge RMD8555 which supposedly works better.
