What owners report

2000-06-23, Latches/Locks/Linkages
THIS COMPONENT WAS THE SUBJECT OF RECALL #98V196001, WE WERE NOTIFIED THAT VIKING DID NOT HAVE A REPLACEMENT FOR THIS COMPONENT, AND THAT IT WOULD BE REPLACED WITH A LIGHT ASSEMBLY. HOWEVER, IF AT A FUTURE DATE VIKING FOUND A SIMILAR PRODUCT, THAT THEY WOULD REPLACE IT WITH A LIGHT AND FAN COMBINATION. THIS FEATURE WAS ONE THAT SOLD US ON THIS MODEL OF RV, SO WE DECIDED TO WAIT FOR THE REPLACEMENT LIGHT AND FAN COMBINATION. WHILE CAMPING RECENTLY THIS PRODUCT FAILED AS THE RECALL STATES, FAN MOTOR FAILED AND BURNED THE WIRING FOR IT IN OUR CHILDRENS BIRTH END, FORTUNATELY NO ONE WAS INJURED, BUT CERTAINLY A WAKE UP CALL TO PAY MORE ATTENTION TO RECALLS!
