MIDDLEBURY, IN—Grand Design Recreational Vehicles is recalling more than 1,200 model year 2025-2026 Lineage motorhomes. The epoxy adhesive securing solar panels to the roof may fail, allowing the panels to detach.
As many as 1,269 RVs may be affected by the recall, which was issued April 30. The cause of the issue is inadequate adhesion due to incompatibility between the epoxy and the roof and panel.
A detached solar panel can become a road hazard for other vehicles, increasing the risk of a crash and injury. For a motorhome’s driver, there is little or no warning that there is a problem.
To address the problem, dealers will secure the solar panels with mechanical fasteners, free of charge. Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed June 24.
