NCAP overall
2 NHTSA recall campaigns on file. Recall repairs are free at franchised dealers.
Defect
THE REFRIGERATOR INSTALLED IN THE TRAILER CAN OVERHEAT BECAUSE THE REFRIGERATOR BAFFLE AND FLUE VENT ARE NOT PROPERLY ALIGNED. HEAT FROM THE COMPRESSOR WILL NOT VENT PROPERLY.
Consequence
CONTINUED USE OF INCORRECTLY VENTED REFRIGERATOR COULDRESULT IN A TRAILER FIRE.
Remedy
REPAIR THE REFRIGERATOR BY PROPERLY ALIGNING THE BAFFLE TO THE VENT.
Defect
DEFECTIVE BATTERY OPERATED SMOKE ALARMS, IN WHICH THE HORN MAY SOUND AT A WEAK OR LOW LEVEL OR MAY NOT SOUND DURING OPERATION, WERE INSTALLED IN THESE VEHICLES.
Consequence
FAILURE OF THE ALARM HORN TO SOUND WOULD NOT WARN THEOCCUPANTS OF THE VEHICLE TO TAKE SOME ACTION TO PREVENT A FIRE OR TO EXIT THEVEHICLE IN THE EVENT OF A FIRE.
Remedy
MAPLE CHASE COMPANY WILL REPLACE THE DEFECTIVE UNITS.
The record is thin — 0 NHTSA complaints — so owner-report data can't strongly confirm reliability either way, though 2 recalls should be verified as completed.
