Â
The Norcold class action settlement resolves allegations that certain refrigerators, made for recreational vehicles and boats, contain a safety-related defect. The plaintiffs claim the defect could cause the boiler tubes to prematurely corrode causing flammable gas to leak. The Norcold class action lawsuit says this defect could increase the risk of a fire.
Norcold Inc. denied the allegations but agreed to pay $36 million to resolve the claims regarding its 1200 Series, N8 Series and N6 Series. In addition, the company also agreed to provide Class Members with a three-year extended warranty which would cover the N6 or N8 Series refrigerators failing due to the alleged defect.
Under the terms of the settlement, Norcold agreed to send out settlement checks once a year for the next four years to qualifying Class Members who submitted valid and timely claims.
Class Members included all U.S. residents who currently or formerly owned a Norcold 1200 Series gas absorption refrigerator or cooling unit that was made between Jan. 1, 2002 and Oct. 1, 2012. Additionally, consumers who currently own a Norcold N6 or N8 Series gas absorption refrigerator or cooling unit made between Jan. 1, 2009 and Dec. 31, 2013 were also considered Class Members.
The deadline to file a claim for the Norcold RV refrigerator settlement passed on Aug. 26, 2016.

Haven’t received my 3rd installment what would I need to do to receive my check, I need to change my adress
Call 1-866-381-9100
I have not received my third installment check according to this site they were mailed out July5,2019 my C0000378216 is my settlement number please respond why mail doesn’t take that long.
As of July 10th 2019 have not received the 3rd installment check. Address is a PO Box in Texas. Previous year payments were received within 7 days even with the holiday and weekend. Not sure if not sent, went missing, delivered to a wrong address or stolen. I feel the disbursement shouldve have included tracking numbers OR a direct deposit option. Seems this may be a way to not have to pay out full amounts over the extended period of time.
We recived our check for $307.52. Unfortunately we have lost it, we feel it somehow got in the trash. Can you please put a stop payment on it & issue a new one. Our address is Ken Claus, 1778 La Cantera Way, Beaumont, Ca 92223 Account#C0000013668. If you need any more information please call at 951-769-3865. Than you very much> Ken Claus
