Consequence: RELEASE OF COOLANT UNDER CERTAIN CONDITIONS COULD IGNITE AND RESULT IN A FIRE.
Remedy: MONACO WILL BE WORKING WITH DOMETIC IN ORDER TO REPAIR THESE REFRIGERATORS (PLEASE SEE 06E076). DOMETIC WILL REPAIR THESE REFRIGERATORS BY INSTALLING A SECONDARY BURN HOUSING, A THERMAL FUSE, AND A MELT FUSE FREE OF CHARGE. DOMETIC HAS RETAINED STERICYCLE INC. TO MANAGE THIS CAMPAIGN. STERICYCLE WILL ASSIST THE OWNER IN LOCATING DEALERSHIPS OR SERVICE CENTERS AND WILL PROVIDE ASSISTANCE WITH SCHEDULING OF APPOINTMENTS. OWNERS MAY CONTACT DOMETIC/STERICYCLE AT 1-888-446-5157 OR MONACO AT 1-877-466-6226.
NHTSA campaign record ↗94V250000 · Equipment:Electrical:Radio/Tape Deck/Cd Etc.
Reported: 1994-12-29 (December 29, 1994)
THE REMOTE POWER SWITCH(ES) LOCATED ON THE HYDRAULIC MOTOR THAT OPERATES THE SLIDE-OUT ROOM IS NOT WATER-PROOF ALLOWING MOISTURE TO PENETRATE INTO THE SWITCH CREATING AN ELECTRICAL PATH.
Consequence: THIS ELECTRICAL PATH CAN ENERGIZE THE MOTOR SOLENOIDCOIL STARTING THE MOTOR FOR THE SLIDE-OUT ROOM AND THE ROOM WILL BEGIN TOEXTEND. THIS CAN CAUSE LOSS OF VEHICLE CONTROL.
Remedy: DEALERS WILL REMOVE THE REMOTE SLIDE-OUT SWITCH(ES) AND LIMIT THE OPERATION OF THE SLIDE-OUT TO THE PRIMARY SWITCH(ES) MOUNTED INSIDE THE TRAILER.
NHTSA campaign record ↗95V211002 · Visibility:Windshield Wiper/Washer
Reported: 1995-10-13 (October 13, 1995)
WHEN OPERATED AT A HIGH SPEED, THE FRONT WIPER ARM CONNECTION TO THE WIPER DRIVE PIVOT SHAFT CAN LOOSEN CAUSING THE WINDSHIELD WIPER SYSTEM TO FAIL.
Consequence: LOSS OF WIPER FUNCTION RESULTS IN REDUCED VISIBILITY FOR THE DRIVER IN INCLEMENT WEATHER CONDITIONS AND INCREASES THE RISK OF AN ACCIDENT.
Remedy: DEALERS WILL REPLACE THE DEFECTIVE WIPER SYSTEMS WITH A DIFFERENT WIPER SYSTEM DESIGN.
NHTSA campaign record ↗95V226000 · Equipment:Other:Labels
Reported: 1995-11-30 (November 30, 1995)
THE FEDERAL CERTIFICATION LABEL OVERSTATES THE GROSS AXLE WEIGHT RATING (GAWR) AS 5,000 LBS. THE CORRECT GAWR IS 4,670 LBS. THIS DOES NOT CONFORM TO FMVSS NO. 120, "TIRE SELECTION AND RIMS FOR MOTOR VEHICLES OTHER THAN PASSENGER CARS."
Consequence: CONSEQUENCE OF NON-COMPLIANCE: THE LOAD RATING FOR THE TIRES AND ATIRES PRESSURES DESIGNATED ON THE FEDERAL CERTIFICATION LABEL ARE NOT APPROPRIATE FOR THE INCORRECTLY STATED GAWR. INCORRECT TIRE AND TIRE INFLATIONS CAN RESULT IN TIRE FAILURE AND POSSIBLE VEHICLE ACCIDENT.
Remedy: OWNERS WILL BE SENT REPLACEMENT CERTIFICATION LABELS AND INSTRUCTIONS FOR REPLACING THEM. IF THEY PREFER, OWNERS CAN HAVE THEIR DEALERS REPLACE THESE LABELS FOR THEM.

Emerging complaint spikes
Complete months in the latest six months with at least 10 complaints, at least twice the preceding 12-month average, and at least three square-root deviations above that average.
This is a descriptive screening rule, not a statistical defect finding. Publicity and reporting changes can increase submissions.
No complete months meet the spike thresholds for this selection.
Equal-age model-year comparison
Model-wide cumulative reports during the first three or five calendar years, starting with the model year (age 0). Only fully elapsed windows are compared.
2009: 0 complaints · 2010: 0 complaints
