Not that I am aware of- be aware that the serial numbers Norcold is giving is the cooling unit serial number (on the tank of the cooling unit), and not the refrigerator serial number.
You can call the Norcold recall line at (800) 767-9101 to get the info.
Thank you. I have found that Norcold is in the process of extending the recall.
From their letter dated March 28, 2008 to NHTSA: "Norcold has determined that this recall should be extended to embrace coolirlg units made by Norcold serving as components in Norcold models 1200LR, 1200LRIM and 1201 \-RIM manufactured from March 1, 1999 to February 28, 2001. Each cooling unit under this extension has a serial number between 1008701 and 1273700, non consecutively."
There is an online registration form and also a phone number for owners to contact.
I doubt that RV manufacturers and Norcold dealers and service centers have received formal notification yet, but the Norcold recall staff may have the information.
If anyone contacts Norcold and gets additional info, please post it in this thread.

For those that haven't followed the recall process, I'll add some information that I've gotten from other recalls.
There is a significant amount of time between the initial determination of the need for a recall and the availability of the hardware, etc. needed for the owners to have the recall work done. In the current Dometic recall, it took about 6 months from the notification to NHTSA until the first kits were available.
The letter in the above post was dated for March 28, so it has only been a little over a month since the initiation of the recall process. Hopefully for owners of these reefers, the process will be faster than the Dometic recall since there is an existing recall for the same, but slightly older, models.
The letter states they plan to begin recalls in May - this month.
If you have one of the newer units, I suggest you check this thread periodically to see what others have learned.
And if you have new information, please post it in this thread.
