Frame Flex

**Butcher** · 04-03-2024, 02:58 PM

I'm no expert and I don't think there are many here either. We all have our opinion but I really do not think anyone knows for certain how many bolts are suppose to be installed at the factory. As I mentioned before, I worked with a lot of idiots but I also have worked with some real professionals too. I am the first to throw a technician under the bus, but I do know it sucked that I worked at a dealership for 30 years and although my name was not on the building, if you talked to me, I stood by my word.

I suspect there are those people at Grand Designs plant that do good work and it sucks that we are the first to bad mouth them based on opinions that are not based on facts.

As a professional auto mechanic, I am not going to be the first to cast stones.

Would someone please share a link to this TSB that has been mentioned for the Solitudes? I have yet to see one.

Does anyone know when this frame flex issue started? My Reflection 337rls isn't small, but it's also a 2015 model. I don't see bedroom trim or outside trim pulling out, and my pin box seems very rigid on and off the hitch. Did they build better "in the old days"?

I haven't seen the TSB and on another forum the moderators who had seen it had specific instructions not to share it until Grand Design posted it since there was still work going on.

I have searched for it on the net and have not been able to find it but I have an appointment at a dealer in July to have the TSB done.

I asked my dealer and they showed it to me. Hopefully your dealer would do the same. Just a quick note, the dealer we purchased from did not know about the TSB until I asked and they have had no GD customers in with frame flex issues. They are a very large high volume GD dealership which doesn't prove anything, but thought I'd mention it.
