NHTSA recall 08V098000
Equipment · MONACO COACH CORPORATION
Details
What's wrong: The rubber liquid propane (lp) hose on the back of the refrigerator may have extra length of hose. This extra hose should have been pulled back by the main house connection and secured. This extra hose potentially can be damaged by heat from the burner tube if the hose comes in contact with the burner flue.
Why it matters: If the hose is in contact with the burner flue for an extended period of time, the hose can melt causing an lp leak with the possibility of a fire.
The fix: Dealers will inspect the refrigerator compartment and for excess lp hose. If the hose is not damaged, it will be secured with a clamp away from the burner flue. If the hose shows any sign of melting or fatigue, it will be replaced free of charge. The recall began on March 20, 2008.
