Grand Design recalls motorhomes. Solar panel may detach, cause road hazard

Grand Design is recalling more than 1,200 model year 2025-2026 Lineage motorhomes. The epoxy adhesive securing the solar panels to the roof may fail, allowing the solar panel to detach. As many as 1,269 RVs may be affected by the recall, which was issued April 30.

The cause of the issue is inadequate adhesion due to incompatibility between the epoxy adhesive and the roof and panel.

A detached solar panel can become a road hazard for other vehicles, increasing the risk of a crash and injury. For a motorhome’s driver, there is little or no warning that there is a problem.

Remedy

Dealers will install mechanical fasteners, free of charge. Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed June 24.

Owners may contact Grand Design customer service at 1-574-825-9679. Grand Design’s number for this recall is M910059. This recall supersedes NHTSA recall 26V042.
