I do not have the actual Samsung model number in front of me, but it is an 18 cu ft unit, French doors on top and pull out freezer on the bottom. It says it has a Dual Cool system (or some such thing) on a panel on the interior of the fridge. As stated, the freezer is working fine - for now. It had a brief spell where the ice cream was very soft.

As far as why it failed, Samsung Tech Support says the unit will work fine with no air circulation for a while, but then the condenser (or evaporator, whichever) will fail. Apparently if you catch it quick enough and get some air to the unit, it MIGHT recover. I pulled mine out and ran it for a week or two, but no signs of recovering were apparent. The temp would fluxuate between 46 and 54 degrees almost hourly.
I am not blaming Samsung, but the way it was installed by Crossroads.
By no means is this the first problem I have had. Many water fitting leaks. I now carry a supply of brass fittings, extra tubing and tools with me.
At the 1 year annual check, all of the brakes and bearings were shot, calling for replacement of all of them.
The trailer was purchased at Camping World. I don't think I will ever go back to them for anything. Following the brake change and after I got out on the road I discovered I had no brakes on the trailer. Come to find out (by me) the brake shoes had never been adjusted up to the drum.
Brakes worked fine until recently. The annunciator panel in my Ram tells me to check the trailer brake wiring and that the brake controller has disconnected the brakes. The Ram service people say the controller is working properly and power is being supplied to the pigtail connector on the truck. If I pull the emergency switch, the brakes lock right up. Go figure. I cannot find any obvious breaks in the wiring, so it must be something hidden in the body of the trailer.
I could go on with other examples, but that would be beating a dead horse.
We like the layout and features of the trailer, but I don't think another Crossroads product is in our future. Too many problems.
