What this recall means for you

Owners should contact an authorized Grand Design dealer to have the safety chains replaced. The repair is free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed September 6, 2023. You can also contact Grand Design customer service at 1-574-825-9679, referencing recall number 910040.
