- The defect
- Grand Design RV, LLC (Grand Design) is recalling certain 2013-2021 Momentum, Solitude, and Reflection recreational vehicles. A 110-volt wire in the refrigerator cabinet may be improperly secured, which could result in the wire contacting the refrigerator cooling unit, causing an electrical arc.
- What it can cause
- An electrical arc increases the risk of a fire.
- What the dealer does
- Dealers will inspect and replace any damaged wiring, and properly secure the wires, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed on February 21, 2022. Owners may contact Grand Design customer service at 1-574-825-9679. Grand Design's number for this recall is 910026.
- NHTSA's note
- Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.nhtsa.gov.
The repair is free, whatever the age or mileage of the vehicle, and whether or not you are the original owner.
Which vehicles
A recall reaches a range of VINs inside these model years, not every car built in them. Yours may not be covered even if it is listed here, and the only way to find out is NHTSA's own VIN lookup .
How this campaign compares
At 43,421 vehicles this is a bigger campaign than 88% of the 19,818 vehicle recalls filed since 1995 whose size NHTSA published. The middle campaign on file covers 472. It covers model years 2013 to 2021, so the oldest vehicles on it were 9 model years old when the defect was reported to NHTSA.
Grand Design vehicles have been recalled over the equipment 13 times before this, most recently in May 2021 as 21V393000. That is not evidence the earlier repair failed.
This site holds the complaint record for 20 of the 27 model years the campaign names. Their owners have filed 309 complaints with NHTSA, 116 of them before this campaign was filed. 17 of those name the equipment, the system this recall is about — a count of complaints, not of this defect. The earliest of them reached NHTSA in August 2014, 7 years before this filing.
The vehicles on this campaign carry 6 other recalls published here, the newest being: 26V044000 (suspension), 25V061000 (equipment), 23V490000 (suspension), 21V393000 (equipment).
Check your own car
A VIN check is the only answer for a specific vehicle, and it also shows every other open recall on it, which is usually the reason it is worth doing rather than reading one campaign.
Filed by Grand Design RV, LLC with NHTSA on January 28, 2022 as campaign 22V038000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
