Recalls, owner-reported complaints, investigations and safety data

Data refreshed

Owner complaintsComplaints are reports submitted to NHTSA by owners and drivers. NHTSA does not verify most reports before publishing them, and a complaint does not establish that a defect exists. Volume is influenced by how many of a vehicle were sold, how long it has been on the road, and how much attention an issue has received.
1
+1 complaint in 30 days
Safety recallsA safety recall is issued when a manufacturer or NHTSA determines that a vehicle has a safety-related defect or does not comply with a federal motor vehicle safety standard. Recall repairs are free. Whether a specific vehicle is covered depends on its VIN — a recall listed for a model year does not necessarily apply to every vehicle of that year.
0
InvestigationsNHTSA opens an investigation to examine whether a safety defect may exist. An open investigation is not a determination that a defect exists, and many investigations close without a recall. Investigations can, however, lead to one.
0
Crash or fire reportedComplaints whose submitter recorded that a crash or a fire occurred. These are the reporter's own answers on the NHTSA form, not verified findings.

Filed Jul 27, 2026

The contact owns a 2026 Grand Design Recreational Solitude RV. The contact stated that there was a leak coming from the underbelly of the RV. A mobile technician from the local dealer inspected the vehicle and determined that it was due to a manufacturing issue. The black seal installed by the manufacturer was positioned too high, creating a gap that allowed water intrusion. There was the presence of black and pink mold, standing water, and raw sewage inside the underbelly of the RV. The raw sewage remained in the vehicle for more than six weeks. The contact was concerned that airborne pathogens may have been present, creating a potential health and safety hazard. The manufacturer was contacted and opened a case for the failure. The failure mileage was unknown.

Manufacturer communications

A bulletin sent by a manufacturer to its dealers. Not a recall, and repairs are not necessarily free.

25-004

We have found that when a customer reclines the customer’s recliner may tip forward unexpectedly, this can result in the customer potentially falling out of the recliner. The fix for this is to ensure the recliners are secured at both the front and rear prior to July 2025 the recliners were only secured at the front.

Manufacturers file copies of the bulletins they send to dealers with NHTSA. These often describe diagnostic or repair procedures for a known condition. They are not recalls: repairs described in a bulletin are usually only free if the vehicle is still under warranty or the manufacturer has extended coverage.

Higher-selling and older vehicles accumulate more reports. Counts are not failure rates and are not directly comparable between vehicles that sold in very different numbers. Older model years have had longer for reports to accumulate.
