2001 Carriage Carriage LS recalls
Recall 10V-626: Equipment
Problem: Carriage is recalling certain fifth wheel trailers equipped with 1200-series norcold refrigerators. The population of refrigerators being addressed contains either a sensing algorithm or thermal switch to shut off power to the refrigerator when high temperatures are detected in order to prevent a potential fire. The response times of the sensor algorithm and thermal switch devices to stop power are not sufficient.
Risk: The sensing algorithm or thermal switch installed to shut off power to the refrigerator when high temperatures are detected due to a possible hydrogen gas leak may not shut off in sufficient time to prevent a fire.
Fix: Carriage is working with norcold to identify and notify any affected owners. Owners will be instructed to contact norcold dealers to receive the remedy free of charge. Please see norcold's defect report 10e-049 for additional information. The safety recall began on march 9, 2011. Owners may contact norcold at 1-800-767-9101.
Recall 08V-260: Equipment
Problem: Carriage is recalling 187 my 2001-2002 carrri-lite, my 1999-2001 carriage, my 2000-2002 carriage ls and my 1999-2001 royals recreational vehicles equipped with norcold refrigerators. A fatigue failure in the section of the cooling unit which contains the refrigerant could allow the liquid solution to slowly leak.
Risk: Extended operation of a leaking cooling unit could lead to a fire from gas which might escape.
Fix: Carriage is working with norcold to repair these refrigerators. Norcold will provide thermal switch kits to owners along with the necessary forms and instructions. The manufacturer has not yet provided an owner notification schedule for this campaign. Owners may contact norcold at 1-800-767-9101 or carriage at 574-642-3622.

Problem: On certain recreational vehicles equipped with a two-door refrigerator manufactured by the dometic corporation, the refrigerator may have a defect in the boiler tube. Pressurized coolant solution could be released into an area where an ignition source (Gas flame) is present.
Risk: Release of coolant under certain conditions could ignite and result in a fire.
Fix: Carriage will be working with dometic in order to repair these refrigerators (Please see 06e076). Dometic will repair these refrigerators by installing a secondary burn housing, a thermal fuse, and a melt fuse free of charge. Dometic has retained stericycle inc. To manage this campaign.
