  1. Fuel/propulsion system, Jun 8, 2022

    There has been a safety recall concerning the Winn-Tec regulator for the propane tank outstanding since last summer. I have been attempting to get this matter resolved with Grand Design since the recall came out. Grand Design has still failed to address this issue. The emails have tagged the recall as RE: M3418134- 114652- 910023 recall.
