I have no idea how far back the fire-danger recalls go for Norcold
and Dometic. I have a 2000 Cedar Creek travel trailer (by Forest
River). I am the original owner and was notified of a recall that
was (if I recall) directed at a possible fire hazard of my fridge.
I took it in to the current dealer for that brand and they did an
inspection and determined that the mod had already been done.

It would behoove ALL owners of GMCs or any other RV to check
for recalls on ANY of their coaches and auxilliary accessories.

Somewhere, there is a federal government site to search for these.
And I expect that some denizen(s) of this list can come up with it.

Somewhere in the discussion of this unfortunate incident over the last several days someone mentioned a recall of Dometic and Norcold refrigerators. I visited the Dometic site quoted in that message and checked my unit's model and serial numbers and, lo and behold, mine was part of the recall - from 2006! I called my local authorized Dometic repair man and he will be visiting me tomorrow - Monday - to install the kit which is intended to prevent a fire from spreading to the surrounding walls - not to prevent the fire but to contain it. Whatever causes the fire will not be fixed but sheet metal will be installed to prevent it from spreading. Just so you know and check your fridges for the same issue.
