What's wrong?
The U-bolts on the 2024 Grand Design Solitude and Momentum fifth wheel trailers clamp the axle to the leaf spring pack. That spring pack is the stack of steel leaves that supports the trailer and lets the suspension flex over bumps. When the clamp load is correct, the axle stays square under the frame.
On affected trailers, the U-bolts were tightened to 110 ft. lbs instead of the specified 90 ft. lbs. That over tightening can distort the spring and clamp area instead of holding it evenly. If the spring pack slips, the axle can move out of position and the trailer will not track as designed.
Owners can look for visible shifting in the spring pack. Warning signs include leaves that no longer line up, witness marks where parts have moved, or fanning in the spring leaves.

What's the safety risk?
An axle that shifts out of position can cause loss of vehicle control and increase the risk of a crash. A visual inspection can show leaf-spring movement, witness marks, or fanning in the spring pack. If you see those signs, stop towing and contact the dealer. Repair is free at any franchised Grand Design dealer.
What should I do?
- Check your VIN to confirm your 2024 Grand Design Solitude or Momentum is included in this recall.
- Contact a franchised Grand Design dealer to schedule the free U-bolt replacement that keeps the axle from moving out of position.
- Bring the recall notice if Grand Design mailed one. If not, reference recall number 24V193 and Grand Design recall 910042 when you call.
- Avoid towing the trailer until the repair is complete. If it has to be moved, use low speeds and extra following distance.
What happens at the repair
At the dealer, a Grand Design technician replaces the U-bolts that secure the axle hardware covered by the recall. The replacement parts and labor are free under the recall. Because Grand Design used its general reimbursement plan for this campaign, documented out-of-pocket costs for a related U-bolt repair are handled through that plan. Bring prior repair paperwork and proof of payment to the service desk, or contact Grand Design customer service for claim instructions.
