I received a recall letter from samsung for a model mr5491 microwave. this unit IS permenantly installed in my travel trailer, yet samsung insists that a must remove the unit and take the unit in for service. I must take off work to do this, as the center IS only open m-f if it IS an installed unit, why does the recall not include service--after all it IS not my problem that the unit IS defective!!
