Through the increase in sales from our first two books, we have found that RV owners, RV technicians, and many from the HVAC & Appliance repair industries are hungry for the information we offer them, especially when it comes to RV absorption refrigerators. Many RVer’s from across the nation are contacting us and our RV Refrigeration Network (RVRN) Association member’s about the recall on their Dometic and Norcold refrigerators. Many of them report they received no notice that their refrigerator was a fire hazard and are very unhappy about the situation. Even worse, many have called our office after their refrigerator caught fire and again, these people had no knowledge there was even a recall. This has given them a very bad impression of these two RV refrigerator manufacturers which has led them to ask many questions.
In an attempt to network these leaders with the RV owners, we have sent them letters and a questionnaire. The letters, the answers to the questionnaire, and a list of who they were sent to will be included in the book so that our readers will see that the RV refrigerator manufacturers really do care about them. Here are samples of the questionnaires sent in May 2011.
Dometic Questionnaire - Norcold Questionnaire
We are very sad to report that neither Dometic nor Norcold have responded to your questions. What does this tell you?
6/17/11 Dear Onna,
Our many thanks to J & S Boner for sharing their story. We praise God they were not fatally harmed by this tragedy. God bless you! The Ford RV Team!
Thank you to D.C., the Division Chief EMS with the Brownsburg Fire Territory in Brownsburg, IN, for sending us photo's of yet another RV refrigerator fire.
