Recall

Got this from Good Sam this morning....

An NHTSA Recall record was found for your vehicle.
NHTSA Campaign ID: 15V808000
Manufacturer: Newmar Corporation
Model Year: 2011
Make: NEWMAR
Model: DUTCH STAR
Recall Date: 20151201
Component: LATCHES/LOCKS/LINKAGESOORS:LATCH
Potential # of Units Affected: 979
Summary: Newmar Corporation (Newmar) is recalling certain model year 2008-2014 King Aire, 2009-2014 Essex, 2011-2015 Mountain Aire, Ventana, and Dutch Star, 2012-2014 Ventana LE, 2012-2015 Canyon Star, and 2015 London Aire motorhomes. The affected vehicles are equipped with refrigerator door latches that may inadvertently lock without the operator''s knowledge.
Consequence: If an individual climbed into the refrigerator and the door inadvertently latched, the person would not be able to open the door, increasing their risk of injury.
Remedy: Newmar will notify owners, and dealers will install a new replacement door latch that will not automatically latch, free of charge. The recall is expected to begin January 24, 2016. Owners may contact Newmar customer service at 1-800-731-8300.

Wow, I wasn't aware this could happen. Next time I'm sitting in my fridge having a beer, I'll make sure the door doesn't latch on me......
