Carl's Collision Center is the listed shop in Newport for fridge work, with a 5.0 rating across 67 reviews. It also handles awning work, and the listing notes insurance, body work and weekend hours. One shop means less choice, so ask the practical questions up front: is the cooling unit or control board the likely culprit, and is the part in stock or ordered. A shop that does collision and body work can also look at a fridge that took a hit on the road. Do not wait until the food is warm to call. Describe whether the freezer still freezes and whether you smell ammonia, which usually means the cooling unit is done.
There are no mobile fridge techs listed in Newport itself, though the nearby Rhode Island count covers shops that may travel or take drop-offs. A fridge is often easier in a bay than in a campground, since testing on both propane and electric takes time and a plug. Ask about mobile work if you are staying put and cannot tow. Also ask whether the shop can pull the fridge without damaging the cabinet trim, because older rigs get fussy there. Getting on the schedule early helps most in spring, when everyone wakes their RV up at once.
Do a little homework so the visit goes fast. Note the fridge brand and model, and whether it is a two-way or three-way unit. Empty the food and move anything that will spoil. Ask about warranty pre-approval if your fridge is newer, since the shop may need the manufacturer's okay before work starts. Confirm the repair cost before anything is ordered, and ask for the old part back if it is replaced. Around Newport, summer traffic can eat a morning, so call ahead on timing and pickup.

Yes. Ask if the part is in stock, whether warranty pre-approval is needed, and what the repair will cost before work begins. Spring and summer fill up, so earlier is easier.
