MIDDLEBURY, Ind., July 11, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Grand Design RV, a wholly owned subsidiary of Winnebago Industries (NYSE: WGO) and one of the fastest-growing RV brands known for its industry-leading recreational vehicles, is proud to announce pioneering enhancements to its warranty program. As an industry first, the company's 3 and 5-year warranties will now be fully transferable to subsequent owners, joining the existing transferable 1-year warranty. Effective immediately, this new policy allows RV owners to transfer the remaining coverage to new owners upon the sale of their vehicle. The new warranty coverage begins with model year 2020.
Since Grand Design’s founding 11 years ago, the company has set out to build a better RV and a better RV company. The new transferable warranty program applies to all of Grand Design’s products. This announcement builds on another recently announced industry first from Grand Design, who shared with its customers in early May, that the company would now offer a 5-year frame warranty on its products. The frame warranty extension applies to Grand Design products, both new and pre-owned.
"Our commitment to our customers is absolute and we stand behind every product we build," said Don Clark, president, and CEO of Grand Design RV. “The aim was not only to extend the warranty but also to improve it, ensuring the well-being of both current and future owners. Purchasing a Grand Design means expecting industry-leading products, service, and warranty.”
The new transferable warranty highlights Grand Design RV’s commitment to quality and customer service. Grand Design RV now serves as the only OEM to offer a 5-year frame warranty and a complete set of transferable warranties, including a 1-year base, 3-year structural, and 5-year frame warranty. This approach sets a new standard for warranty policies in the RV Industry.
“Our customers have been asking for this,” said Clark. “We heard you, and we acted. Our company’s approach with warranties not only sets us apart, but also reinforces our dedication to providing our customers with exceptional value and peace of mind. It demonstrates our belief in the products we build and the promises we make to our owners.”
