Grand design has had major issues with frames flexing beyond normal tolerances resulting in cracks in the fiberglass walls as well as breaking some of the welds. The frames are designed and built by Lippert and not in house. It's known issue. I have no idea what Winnebago will do about it. From what I can tell, as per the usual with some of these manufacturers, it's a fight to the death to get them to deal with it and buy backs are pretty rare and involve an NDA so you never hear about them. Yes, there should be a recall, but that never really happens in the Rv industry. There is no control or oversight. It's you against the manufacturer. Shame, you spend so much money on something and it's really one of the only industries that cannot be forced to stand behind their product even for safety reasons. Winnebago used to be one of the best in the industry, Now I'd put them in the running with Thor. I have heard so many issues lately with Winnie products.
