On our first pull of over 7 miles, we discovered the shortcomings of the door latch that came installed on our Samsung residential refrigerator. Not only will it vibrate or bounce open (that was a mess... and put a little dent in the left fridge door from hitting the kitchen island), but the OEM latch does nothing to secure the freezer drawer. I did some research and found the Fridge Fixer. Before I go on, I want to say that I have absolutely no connection with the company that makes this. I ordered one and had it waiting for us at our daughter's house in Maryland when we arrived last week (used some rope to secure the doors and drawer to get up here). I got around to installing it yesterday and it's an excellent solution for the problem. The only thing I'm not super pleased about is the distortion in the right hand door that the screws for the OEM latch caused. I found some low-profile screws to fill the holes so the T latch for the Fridge Fixer would slide in and out easily. Perhaps Grand Design should consider this option rather than the latches they are installing... Here are some links and photos:
