What's wrong?
The 50 amp mini-breaker in a 2019 Grand Design Reflection travel trailer is part of the electrical protection system. It sits in line with a circuit and is supposed to interrupt power when current gets too high. That protection keeps wiring from carrying more load than it is designed to handle.
On affected Reflection trailers, the wires were attached to the wrong screw terminals on the mini-breaker. The terminals are color-coded to show where each wire belongs, but these connections were installed backwards during production. Because of that wiring error, the affected circuit is left without over-current protection. If the circuit draws too much power, the breaker does not protect it the way it should.
There is no warning sign before failure. An owner is not expected to hear a noise, smell anything unusual, or notice a normal-use symptom that confirms the circuit is unprotected.

What's the safety risk?
An unprotected circuit that overheats or shorts can increase the risk of a fire. This can happen without warning, so treat an included VIN as the trigger for action instead of waiting for symptoms. Repair is free at any franchised Grand Design dealer.
What should I do?
- Check your VIN to confirm your 2019 Grand Design Reflection is included in this recall.
- Contact a franchised Grand Design dealer to schedule the free 50 amp mini-breaker inspection and rewiring that protects the circuit from overheating or shorts.
- Bring the recall notice if you have it, and reference recall number 18V729 when you call.
- Ask the dealer whether the trailer needs any use restrictions before the repair appointment.
- Avoid delaying the inspection; incorrectly wired mini-breaker wiring can leave the circuit unprotected and raise the risk of a fire.
What happens at the repair
At the dealer, a Grand Design technician inspects the 50 amp mini-breaker wiring and checks that the circuit is protected as intended. If the breaker is wired incorrectly, the technician rewires it. The inspection and any needed rewiring are free under the recall. Grand Design says owners who already paid to have this service performed will be reimbursed immediately. Bring the paid invoice or repair paperwork to the service desk, or contact Grand Design customer service at 1-574-825-9679 to start the reimbursement request.
