Bison Recalling 2003-2006 Alumasport and Stratus Horse Trailers

Bison is recalling 1,266 MY 2003-2006 Alumasport and Stratus horse trailers equipped with a two-door refrigerator manufactured by the Dometic Corporations. The refrigerator may have a defect in the boiler tube. Pressurized coolant solution could be released into an area where an ignition source (gas flame) is present.

If this solution is exposed to an ignition source under certain specific circumstances, it can result in a vehicle fire.

Bison is working with Dometic to repair these refrigerators by installing a secondary burn housing, a thermal fuse, and a melt fuse free of charge. Dometic has retained Stericycle Inc. to manage this campaign. Stericycle will assist the owner in locating dealerships or service centers and will provide assistance with scheduling of appointments. Owners may contact Dometic/Stericycle at 1-888-446-5157 or Bison at 1-574-658-4161.

Customers may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration’s Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 or go to www.safercar.gov.
