Nu wa is recalling certain my 2004-2007 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.

If this solution is exposed to an ignition source under certain specific circumstances, it can result in a vehicle fire.
