2022 Grand Design Solitude Wheels Problems

“While driving, the entire wheel detached from the front axle on the driver's side on 7/31/2024. I was unaware of the tire coming off until another motorist flagged me down.

Then the loudness and softness of the flooring has gotten worse. We also lost a wheel and tire due to a suspension failure resulting in the wheel to be ripped from the hub and axle while going down a two lane highway at approximately 40 mph. …”

“The contact owns a 2022 Grand Design Solitude. The contact stated that the front passenger's side tire had lost air pressure due to a crack on the tire sidewall on three separate occasions.

Additionally, The contact stated that he had discovered the same crack on all three front passenger's side tires that were replaced.
