Issue: Certain motorhomes may have a defective refrigerator travel latch that may activate without the user?s knowledge when the doors are closed. If the latch locks the door shut, the refrigerator cannot be opened from the inside. This could potentially cause entrapment/injury to an individual. This only applies to French door style refrigerators with a specific travel latch. Attached is a list of specific coaches affected.","document":{"url":"https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2017/MC-10117944-9999.pdf","alternate_url":"https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2017/MC-10117944-0001.pdf","confirmed":false},"url":"https://open.wenmarpro.com/bulletins/10117944","components":[{"id":"equipment","name":"Equipment and accessories","parent":null}],"codes":[],"topics":[],"vehicles":[{"make":"NEWMAR","model":"CANYON STAR","year_from":2008,"year_to":2015,"match":null,"vehicle_ids":[]},{"make":"NEWMAR","model":"DUTCH STAR","year_from":2008,"year_to":2015,"match":null,"vehicle_ids":[]},{"make":"NEWMAR","model":"ESSEX","year_from":2008,"year_to":2015,"match":null,"vehicle_ids":[]},{"make":"NEWMAR","model":"KING AIRE","year_from":2008,"year_to":2015,"match":null,"vehicle_ids":[]},{"make":"NEWMAR","model":"MOUNTAIN AIRE","year_from":2008,"year_to":2015,"match":null,"vehicle_ids":[]},{"make":"NEWMAR","model":"VENTANA","year_from":2008,"year_to":2015,"match":null,"vehicle_ids":[]},{"make":"NEWMAR","model":"VENTANA LE","year_from":2009,"year_to":2015,"match":null,"vehicle_ids":[]}],"as_of":"2026-10-19","note":"A bulletin is a manufacturer's communication to its dealers, as NHTSA indexes it.
