Time to replace defective and potentially dangerous absorption fridge

[al perna]

My unit was replaced in 2011 by the PO with a new Norcold . did Dometic/Norcold work out the cause of the FIRE by this year model ? Can we narrow the failed units down by year or factory ?
I like the absorption fridge due to the long periods we spend Boondocking . We have learned how to work around the limited space as we did going from a 5000 sq home and 4 kids , 3 dogs , and 2 cats to a 43' motorhome . I would hate to remove a new unit if all we are doing is buying additional Life Insurance !
