Affects Norcold N260, 322, 323, N300 · 1992–1999 — about 127K vehicles.

The hazard

On certain gas/electrical absorption RV and camping trailer refrigerators, the pressure tap device swivel nut may experience stress corrosion cracking. If the nut is cracked severely enough to relax the flare joint between the aluminum gas line tube and the pressure tap component, propane fuel gas has the potential to leak if the refrigerator is activated for operation in gas mode. This can present the potential for a fire to occur in the area behind the refrigerator if the leakage and accumulation is substantial enough to ignite from an adjacent burner. Correction: Swivel nut will be replaced.
