In 2023 we purchased this RV. Recently, we discovered that the cargo carrying capacity is incorrect by about 900 pounds, subject to Recall 23V-428. Grand Design knew of this defect before the rig was sold; however, they didn’t remove the vehicle from the dealers lot, nor were we ever contacted by Grand Design. Grand Design knew of the issue in June 2023, and we purchased our rig in July 2023. We also have had the rig in for repairs for broken leaf spring supports and now they’ve done some welding on our frame because of frame flex issues.
Front of 5th wheel movement caused by excessive frame failure, inspection shows 1/2" out of compliance. Lag screws around interior upper deck backed out and have to be tightened regularly, soft spot in floor between bathroom and upper deck bedroom. Additional body screws needed in garage area to hold skin in place. Front jacks angled.

The front of our grand design momentum fifth wheel camper has sustained some structural failure. Our bedroom slide will no longer stay closed when driving down the road. Our storage doors will also open every now and then when we encounter rough bumps or rough roads. We began to notice some small damage inside the front bedroom of the unit as well. The camper has been untowable for nearly 6 months, with no help from the manufacturer. Even though the have issued an extended warranty for like issues.
