The issue just happen on our 23ML. I was able to temporarily fix the position with longer screws. But, this is no holding the firg in place. I believe a cabinet rebuild is require. I am looking for recommendations from others with the same issue.

Funny I was just looking at our fridge in the new 252RL and it's mounted with a pretty good tilt back. Makes the doors close on there own but it's a little excessive.

I plan on removing the fridge and re mount it properly. After I remove it I want to add a switch again to cut power off to it when I want. I did this on the other camper.

What broke loose??? More info please. Did the wood frame that it's screwed to break or what???

We had a Magic Chef with the freezer on the bottom in the Rockwood 2515S we just traded. It was a way better fridge than this furrion junk they used. Might have to replace it some day and maybe use this one in my conex box or if I build another cabin.

Ours has broke loose twice on our recent 8K trip, the cabinet is also loose at the bottom where it connects to the slide floor. There are only 4 screws 2 on each side holding it in and it looks to me that the refrigerator is mounted so that the rear is unsupported. The screws go through the sides which is plastic, foam and a thin metal side into what I believe is just 1/4" plywood the screws actually sheared off with damage to the plywood. The floor of the slide looks like 5/8" chip board. I will be removing it starting Monday to start repairs. I did send a note to Alliance as this looks like it could be a major problem. Unfortunately I need our 23ML early next month and cannot wait for Alliance or a dealer to make the repairs. I70 through Indiana is just awful!

Sounds like when I remove the fridge I will make a better support for it underneath. I did look in there with a flashlight and it has nothing under there.

Can't really tell from this pic but it's mounted slanted pretty badly. Another Junk built trailer. LOL

I haven't found the installation instructions but I'm sure the space underneath and on top are to allow airflow to disperse the heat. My guess is I will make narrow ramps to roll the rollers up on to that are on the back, won't know for sure until Monday when it is removed.
