What's wrong?
On a 2026-2027 Grand Design Lineage with the optional 20-inch wheel and tire package, the final-stage tire placard is the tire information label the owner uses before a trip. It tells you which tires are fitted and what pressure to use at each axle, so the tires are carrying the motorhome at the pressure Grand Design specified.
On affected Lineage motorhomes, the label data was updated for the optional tire size and front axle inflation value, but the rear axle value stayed at the base setting of 100 psi. That means a label printed for the optional LT295/65R20 tires and 20-inch wheels can show the wrong rear tire pressure. The tire itself is not the recalled part; the problem is the instruction label telling the owner the wrong rear pressure.
There is no separate warning sign from the motorhome before this happens. The misleading sign is the placard: an owner doing a normal pre-trip tire check and following that rear value can over-inflate the rear tires.
Who's affected?
Covers the 2026 and 2027 Lineage model years, both tied to the same final-stage tire placard label.

The year and model narrow the scope, but the VIN decides. Check your VIN to confirm whether your specific motorhome is included.
What's the safety risk?
Incorrect tire pressure information can lead an owner to over inflate the tires during a normal pre trip check. Over inflated tires raise the risk of tire failure and a crash, and the driver has no clear warning because the incorrect value is on the label. Drive cautiously and schedule the label repair. Repair will be free at any franchised Grand Design dealer once available.
What should I do?
- Check your VIN to confirm your 2026-2027 Grand Design Lineage is included in this recall.
- Watch for Grand Design's owner letter expected August 17, 2026, then contact a franchised Grand Design dealer to schedule the free label replacement that corrects the rear tire pressure information.
- Call Grand Design customer service at 1-574-825-9679 with questions, and reference recall number 26V491 when you call.
- Avoid relying on the current rear tire pressure label until the corrected label is installed.
What happens at the repair
Grand Design has identified the dealer fix: a Grand Design technician will replace the tire information labels so the rear tire pressure shown on the motorhome matches the recall repair. Because the remedy status is not listed as available yet, treat this as a repair that will be free once it opens. Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed August 17, 2026. If you already paid for a label-related repair before the notice, Grand Design's standard reimbursement plan applies. Keep your paperwork and ask Grand Design customer service how to submit documentation.
