Grand Design trailer entrance door latch mechanism may fail
Grand Design is recalling certain 2025-2026 Lineage trailers with Lippert Modularia entrance doors because the door latch mechanism may fail, potentially trapping occupants in an emergency.
What this means for you
Our assessment, not the agency’s: severity 4/5 (Severe).
The hazard poses a serious risk of illness, injury, or structural failure. Stop using the product immediately and contact the manufacturer for a refund or repair.
Our severity reasoning: Rubric level 4 covers structural vehicle defects: latch failure can leave occupants unable to open the entrance door in an emergency, so the means of escape is lost rather than degraded.
