 My wife and i took delivery of a 2010 keystone laredo fifth wheel on 4/23/09. we had the demonstration of the unit and had the guy light the oven for us.(we never got our oven of our 07 tt lit). i brought the fifth wheel home and loaded all of my personal belongings from my tt in it. the next morning 4/24/09 i took the fifth wheel to my storage place and left it there. on 5/9/09 i got a call from my storage place telling me that my fifth wheel caught fire the night before destroying it and the motorhome and travel trailer next to it. i went to the dometic refrigerator recall web site and learned that my refrigerator was part of the recall. how can dometic still be making or shipping defected refrigerator that they recalled in august of 2006? how can keystone be installing these products without fixing them? i'm confused how this can be happening. i lost some irreplaceable items in this fire. this model is a laredo, i clicked hornet on the next page because it was the only choice. *tr
