What's wrong?
The solar inverter in a 2022 Grand Design Momentum travel trailer is part of the trailer's 110-volt electrical system. Its job is to manage power for the trailer's solar setup so electricity flows through the right side of the circuit and reaches the outlets and equipment it is meant to serve.
On affected Momentum trailers, the 110-volt power supply wire was connected directly to the solar inverter's output port. That wire should have been connected to a power outlet that feeds the inverter. With the wire on the wrong side of the inverter, the circuit can be overloaded and the power supply wire can overheat.
Grand Design traced the issue to a substituted WFCO solar inverter that used a different wiring method than the normal component. There is no component replacement in this recall; the problem is the wiring path. Owners can notice a strong odor of melting plastic from the area where the inverter is installed.
Who's affected?
Both listed components point to the WFCO 1k Watt Solar Inverter, which is the part owners should name when calling a Grand Design dealer.

What's the safety risk?
An overheated power supply wire increases the risk of a fire. A strong melting-plastic odor near the inverter is a warning sign. If you smell it, stop using the power system, keep people away from the area, and arrange service soon. Repair is free at any franchised Grand Design dealer.
What should I do?
- Check your VIN to confirm your 2022 Grand Design Momentum is included in this recall.
- Contact a franchised Grand Design dealer to schedule the free 110-volt power-wire rewire that fixes the incorrectly wired solar inverter circuit.
- Bring the recall notice if you have it, or reference recall number 22V442 when you call.
- Avoid using the affected 110-volt power supply through the solar inverter until the rewire is complete.
What happens at the repair
At the dealer, a Grand Design technician rewires the 110-volt power wire so it is no longer wired directly into the solar inverter. The recall repair is free, with parts and labor covered. Grand Design says owners who already paid for this service will be reimbursed for expenses related to this defect. Bring paid invoices or other repair documentation to the service desk, or contact Grand Design customer service if the dealer asks you to submit the claim directly.
