Residential Fridge Latch

On my first trip in my 2017 369XL, the right side of my fridge comes open and I hear alarm. I did have the strap across the doors so it was stuck partially open. I took my rig back to the dealer for some warranty work. They said it is a residential refrigerator and there is no latch on the right door. They also said if customer overloads door it could come open. There was nothing hardly on the door, when it came open. As a temporary fix, i wrapped the strap around the handle on the right side door. Has anyone else had this problem? Does anyone have a fix for this? I understand it is a residential refrigerator and at home you might not have a latch, but if you put one in a moving vehicle, maybe there should be a safety latch.

Yes, this has been discussed previously on several forums including here.
You are not the first with this problem.
Here's a link to some of the discussions.
