Dometic Fan-Tastic Vent Fan recalled for detachable lid hazard

What this means

Certain Dometic Fan-Tastic Vent Fans may be missing a hinge pin, which can allow the lid to detach during transit. A loose lid can fall onto the road and create a hazard for other drivers.

  • Check if your vent fan matches one of these part numbers: 9610007180, 9610007181, 9610007182, 9610007183, 9610007184, or 9610007185.
  • Contact Dometic customer service at 1-888-943-4905 to schedule a free inspection and hinge pin replacement.
  • Do not use the vent fan until it has been inspected and repaired by a dealer.
