Freezer to cold

Frost in the freezer bags does not mean the freezer is too cold. That is simply moisture from the food that had frozen.

The temperature sensing device may have become dislodged. Some are mounted to the fins in the back of the fridge part.

If it has a Thermistor to input temp info to the logic board... A poor or unplugged connection will cause the board to command full cooling. A "failed open" thermistor also will.

Air in storage bags has moisture and it will ice up

A faulty or fallen down thermistor (temp sensor in food section) would cause items (milk, eggs, vegetables etc.) in food section to freeze.

Also you being in cold area refrigerator is more efficient at changing ammonia coolant state (liquid to vapor to liquid) so it stays a lot cooler.

x4 Sorry never heard of a freezer being too cold a refrigerator yes

The more air you get out of the bags the less frost will form in them.

The freezer CANNOT get too cold. The normal range of a freezer is 10 degrees to -10 degrees. The temp sensor on ALL RV absorbsion refers regulates the regular refer NOT the freezer and there is NO temp adjustment on a RV freezer. Doug

Uh, don't folks use a plug n play THERMOMETER anymore? Or maybe THERMOMETER has as many letters as HYDROMETER and therefore is shunned. Just sayin'

What refrigerator do you have?

Most RV/absorption refrigerators have the thermostat in the refrigerator only.

And, yes if you have a question about temperature in either refrigerator or freezer, put a thermometer in and verify actual temperature.
