2021 Grand Design Momentum body complaints

Filed Nov 24, 2023 · Body · CA

This trailer has frame flex in the gooseneck area to the point it is damaging the cabinetry in the front of the trailer. I have been in multiple momentum trailers with this problem and the dealership just wants me to trade it in or charge an astronomical amount of money to try and fix. It’s a known problem that everyone needs to be aware of.

It is a common issue with the Grand Design Momentum G-class travel trailers where the interior floor and possibly the frame are flexing so much that is causes the laminate flooring to lift and separate from the plywood underneath. Bubbles in my laminate flooring were found during our initial walk through when our trailer was purchased, I was lead to believe that it was just a simple adhesive issue, but have since found from research that this is a common issue with all the g-class trailers. Many people on the Grand Design facebook pages have experienced the same exact issue, in the same exact areas as mine. Several have had them "repaired" to find out that the problem reoccurs. I am truly concerned about the structural integrity of the trailer as I believe that if the frame is flexing to this extent, that there is a lot of potential for it to become a catostrophic failure in the future while traveling down the road, putting myself and others in potential danger. Metal can fatigue and crack over time from being flexed. Bluedog RV (Portland, OR) has seen this issue several times, and has helped customers get their trailers repaired by a company called Fibrenew. I have e-mails from Bluedog confirming that they know a problem exist, but they claim they do not have anyone capable of fixing it, and do not know of anyone who can fix it. Fibrenew no longer is willing to do the repairs as they feel they can not adequately repair them, and they believe it is a structural integrity issue caused by Grand Design engineering. Our trailer was recently taken to Bluedog RV to have this fixed, but it is unknown what they did. The bubbles in our flooring still exist so it is my belief that they did nothing. It has never been inspected by anyone else. Files attached with file names 1,2 and 3 are of my trailer. The other files attached are supporting documents.
