- What it can cause
- A propane leak in the presence of an ignition source can increase the risk of a fire.
- What the dealer does
- Dealers will inspect the refrigerator, and repair or replace it as necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed June 12, 2024. Owners may contact Grand Design customer service at 1-574-825-9679. Grand Design's number for this recall is 910043.

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 39 vehicles this is a small campaign: 80% of the 19,818 vehicle recalls filed since 1995 whose size NHTSA published are as large or larger. The middle campaign on file covers 472. It covers one model year, 2023, so the oldest vehicles on it were one model year old when the defect was reported to NHTSA.
Grand Design vehicles have been recalled over the equipment 16 times before this, most recently in June 2023 as 23V428000. That is not evidence the earlier repair failed.
This site holds the complaint record for all 1 model year the campaign names. Their owners have filed 18 complaints with NHTSA. 1 of those name the equipment, the system this recall is about — a count of complaints, not of this defect.
The vehicles on this campaign carry 5 other recalls published here, the newest being: 26V044000 (suspension), 25V784000 (equipment), 25V061000 (equipment), 23V490000 (suspension).
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 May 29, 2024 as campaign 24V378000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
