Has your Fleetwood been repaired?

Recalls here come from NHTSA’s records for the model and year. Not every vehicle of a model is included in every recall, and this site can’t see whether a repair has been done. Only a VIN lookup can tell you that.

NHTSA’s VIN search doesn’t show recalls that were already repaired, recalls more than 15 years old, or some small manufacturers’ recalls. A Fleetwood dealer can also check your VIN. Recall repairs are free.

2002 Fleetwood Bounder recalls, newest first

July 28, 2009NHTSA 09V3120006,684 vehicles potentially affected

Equipment

Summary
Fleetwood RV is recalling certain model year 2005 and 2006 motorhomes manufactured between July 24, 2004 and March 11, 2005, equipped with norcold model 1200LR, 1200LRIM, and 1201LRIM refrigerators with serial numbers between 1273701 and 1536607, non-consecutively. A fatigue failure in the section of the cooling unit which contains the refrigerant could allow the liquid solution to slowly leak. If a leak occurs and the refrigerator continues to be operated after solution circulation has ceased the heat source could generate very high temperatures. At such high temperatures, the cooling unit could rupture.
Consequence
If a leak occurs and the unit is continues to operate, hydrogen gas may be expelled and can be ignited, resulting in a fire, possibly causing serious injury or death.
Remedy
Fleetwood RV will notify owners and the vehicle's refrigerator will be repaired free of charge. The safety recall is expected to begin during September 2009. Owners may contact fleetwood RV at 1-800-509-3418 or norcold's recall center at 1-800-767-9101.
