Triple E Unity Recall 22V136: Refrigerator Exhaust Can Overheat Wood and Cause Fire

NHTSA campaign 22V136, reported March 8, 2022, 964 vehicles potentially affected.

What this recall means for you

Some motorhomes were built without the metal exhaust deflectors for the refrigerator. Without them, hot exhaust from the refrigerator can vent directly onto the wood frame, which can overheat the wood.

An overheated wood frame could ignite and cause a fire in the motorhome.

The repair is free. Authorized dealers will install metal heat deflectors and screws at no charge. Owners who have questions can contact Triple E customer service at 1-877-992-9906, and should reference Triple E's recall number CA#10050-1. You can also check your vehicle identification number (VIN) for open recalls.
