STRUCTURE:BODY
- The defect
- Grand Design RV, LLC (Grand Design) is recalling certain 2022-2023 Momentum, Solitude, Imagine, Reflection, and Transcend travel trailers. The electric retractable awning has a welded seam on the fabric that may separate, potentially allowing the awning to drop beyond normal operation.
- What it can cause
- An awning that drops or extends beyond normal operation can increase the risk of injury.
- What the dealer does
- Dealers will inspect and repair, or replace the awning, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed by August 22, 2022. Owners may contact Grand Design customer service at 1-574-825-9679. Grand Design's number for this recall is 910031.
- 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 8,150 vehicles this is a bigger campaign than 78% of the 19,818 vehicle recalls filed since 1995 whose size NHTSA published. The middle campaign on file covers 472. It covers model years 2022 to 2023, and the defect was reported to NHTSA in 2022, at or before the oldest model year it covers — as current as a recall gets.
Grand Design vehicles have been recalled over the structure once before this, most recently in January 2022 as 22V039000. That is not evidence the earlier repair failed.
This site holds the complaint record for 6 of the 10 model years the campaign names. Their owners have filed 147 complaints with NHTSA. 102 of those name the structure, the system this recall is about — a count of complaints, not of this defect.
The vehicles on this campaign carry 16 other recalls published here, the newest being: 26V044000 (suspension), 25V784000 (equipment), 25V061000 (equipment), 24V916000 (structure).
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 August 9, 2022 as campaign 22V603000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
