Dometic refrigerator recall has been going on for about a year or so and everytime I receive a notice ( three 3 so far) the model no's. And/or the serial no's. Change. At this point I'm no sure if my unit is affected or not. So I went on www.dometicusa.com to address my concerns about if my unit was affected or not and there was no click-on for recall. The notice I received in the mail instructed me to this site but there is place to obtain info about this recall. I thought you should know about this situation. Thanks, paul
