New Recall for Refrig Breaker

I just saw this recall notice ---- thought I'd post it, looks like I'm outside the window and should be OK

"Newmar Corporation (Newmar) is recalling certain model year 2007-2012 Bay Star, Ventana VT/VL, Dutch Aire, Dutch Star, All-Star, Mountain Aire, and Essex motorhomes manufactured January 16, 2007, to May 24, 2012. In the affected vehicles, the circuit breaker for the refrigerator heated water line may be incorrect for the amperage draw. A circuit breaker that is incorrectly rated for the amperage need increases the risk of a fire. Newmar will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the motorhome and verify that the circuit breaker rating is correct for the amperage draw, free of charge. The recall began November 6, 2014. Owners may contact Newmar customer service at 800-731-8300. "

Just got my notice on the recall, called NewMar service and found out that I don't need to have anything done. Seems like they sent recall to all without all affected?

Here is the Recall and it doesn't say which refrigerator it might be, the heater wire is used for the Norcold, someone with a residual fridge could let us know if there is a heater wire for water line also.
