Well, that was discouraging to find out about! I hate having my number come up in anything but the LOTTO! Hopefully a simple retrofit will be possible but somehow I doubt it.

Maybe that burned Jayco we saw the pic of several months ago was a victim?

I got through to a representative at Dometic this morning, I was reluctantly transferred a couple times. The only way I was able to convince them to connect me to someone regarding the recall was to tell them I would post the information on the RV.NET Forum and possibly save them a few hundred phone calls. I was finally connected to a gentleman by the name of Brad Sergeant, I explained the question about either being on the model number list and not the serial number list or on the serial number list and not the model number list.

He said you have to be on BOTH lists to be involved in the recall. I asked since my unit was on the serial number list but not the model number list they must use the same concurrent serial numbers on different models, he said yes they do.

I might also add that everyone I spoke to did not seem very happy discussing the topic.

Hope this helps.

I should have chimed in about serial numbers- the way Dometic does serial numbers is the first number is the year, the next two numbers are the week, and the remaining numbers are the numbers for that week- IOW, 4253407 would be the 3407th product built in the 25th week of 2004 (or 1994, or 1984, but the products take care of decades).
Every product Dometic builds goes in to that numbering system, so even air conditioners would have serial numbers in the affect S/N range.
Heck- I even have a Dometic serial number .
