Evening all.
We recently purchased a 2011 Jayco Eagle outback to replace our elderly Jayco Flight.
Apart room the extra room, the Eagle came with a larger 3 way fridge so that meant we could pension off our 30 year old Companion chest fridge or so we thought.
The first trips were great, fridge worked very well through all temps and conditions, then it became a bit, well, flakey. Sometimes it would work, then not. After a week sitting powered up in our driveway, it finally failed all together. At first I thought it was the thermostat, but that wouldn't explain why it wouldn't work on 12v as that doesn't come into play unless it's on 240 or gas.
A call to Jayco put me on to a Dometic service agent who diagnosed a loss of gas meaning a total cooling unit replacement! Basically cut the back of the fridge off and silicone on another one.
The cost was going to be somewhere north of $800 but Dometic have offered a $300 discount on the replacement part.

Has anyone else had one of these die completely?

My previous Jayco fridge is still going strong as is my Companion chest fridge.
It just seems weird that something with no moving parts can fail totally after such a relatively short time.
