2024 Grand Design Momentum recalls
Loose U-bolts can let trailer axle shift, risking crash
Certain fifth wheel trailers have U-bolts that attach the leaf springs to the axle, and these U-bolts may loosen because they lack adequate preload or lose preload over time.
Steps Can Detach and Cause Injury
Certain toy haulers have a removable step assembly with a clip-on bracket whose mounting bolts may loosen over time.
Step Tread Can Detach, Raising Fall Injury Risk
Certain Grand Design Momentum fifth wheel trailers have an interior step base that does not adequately support the step tread.
Loose axle U-bolts can let axle shift and cause crash
Some trailers may have had their U-bolts, which hold the leaf springs to the axle, improperly tightened at the factory.
Safety Chains May Be Underrated, Risking Trailer Separation
Certain Momentum 23G and 25G travel trailers may have safety chains that are underrated for the trailer's Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR).
Loose Axle U-Bolts Can Shift Axle, Risking Crash
Certain fifth wheel trailers have U-bolts that may have been improperly tightened.

What owners report
The U bolts on my RV suspension failed which let all the leaf springs fall out. My family was very lucky that no one was injured or killed. Please see the attached photos.
On interstate 10 in Texas our rear driver side window just fell out. Could have been a hazard to any following vehicles. No unusual road conditions were to blame!
October, 2025: At around 1800 miles on the trailer we inspected one axle set (RR)of wheel bearings and brake backing plate/shoe assemblies. This was prior to a 1400 mile trip with the trailer. The trailing shoe was found to be cracked and had material coming off in chunks. Upon contacting and reporting this to the manufacturer they sent a replacement backing plate assembly, drum and wheel bearings. The planned trip was made with the old parts. The braking on the trailer wasn't the best but they did not fail. Skip ahead to 02-22-2026 and we took the brakes apart on the one we'd reported and noticed immediately that the friction material that had begun to come apart had done so even more. W
Component Failures: Frame outriggers failed twice with broken welds and severe bending. Front bedroom emergency exit window detached during highway travel 1/20/26, struck RV and adjacent vehicle before shattering. Main entry door repeatedly opens during travel since 7/25, worsening. Floor sagging in multiple locations. All available for inspection except missing window. Safety Risks: Window detachment created highway projectile, potential damaged third-party vehicle. Door opening risks items ejection. Frame failures risk collapse, rollover, or trailer separation. Floor deflection indicates compromised integrity. Continuous sawdust shows ongoing deterioration. Professional Confirmation: Yes
The contact owns a 2024 Grand Design Momentum RV. The contact stated that upon purchasing the RV brand new, the dealer hitched the RV to the 2024 Chevrolet Silverado 3500 HD.
