I just got my notice "Dometic Voluntarily Expands Refrigerator Recall" If I am reading the "fix letter" to letter to NHTSA right all Dometic is doing is installing a shield to contain the leaking coolant so it doesn't catch fire. So when/if the coolant leaks out of the defective weld and fatigued metal it won't cause a fire but now the refrigerator is now useless. Who pays to fix the refrigerator so it will again be a working refrigerator? If I am going to get stuck with the cost, I might as well forget the recall fix and replace my refrigerator now with another brand and never ever again buy any Dometic Product. With this letter and notice Dometic is admitting that they have sold an unsafe and defective product, but will not replace the defective unit. Sounds like good grounds to sue for the replacement cost in Small Claims court.
