01 What Outdoors RV publishes for the Glacier Peak
Outdoors RV Manufacturing lists 5 Glacier Peak fifth wheels in its Glacier Peak model pages on outdoorsrvmfg.com (no model year stated). Outdoors RV prints a dry weight for every one profiled here, and each has a page of its own. It prints no GVWR for any of them. It prints a net carrying capacity for 5; with no GVWR printed, the check that dry weight plus carrying capacity equals the GVWR cannot be made. (How the data is verified.)

03 Reading Outdoors RV’s figures
A maker’s published weight is for a base trailer; options and dealer-installed equipment add weight to any particular unit. The federal weight label inside the trailer carries its own unloaded weight, cargo carrying capacity and GVWR (49 CFR 567 and 571.120): read it on the unit itself before any towing decision.

05 Recalls
NHTSA lists 3 recall campaigns affecting this line. The earliest was reported 6 Nov 2015 and the most recent 31 Oct 2024.
| Reported | Campaign | Component | What can go wrong |
|---|---|---|---|
| 31 Oct 2024 | 24V813000 | Equipment | An inverted cooktop flame increases the risk of injury or fire. |
| 9 Aug 2016 | 16V587000 | Trailer hitches | If the fifth-wheel separates from the tow vehicle there would be an increased risk of a crash. |
| 6 Nov 2015 | 15V737000 | Equipment | If the wires or lines get pinched or scraped, the wires may short or the LP lines may leak. Either condition increases the risk of a fire. |
Coverage is not complete: this list is a starting point, not a clearance (how it is built), so check a specific VIN at NHTSA before you buy and again before you tow.
One 2024 campaign (24V813000, 2025 models) lists floorplan codes only; it is counted here because Outdoors RV sells code F28RKS only as a Glacier Peak model. One 2024 campaign (24V268000) is filed only under Outdoors RV’s Titanium Series name, which spans several lines; it is not counted here.

How this count is drawn. A report is counted here only when NHTSA’s own model field names this line. What the owner typed in the description is never used to attribute a report: our line names are ordinary English words, and an owner writing “imagine my surprise when the axle went” or naming the state of Montana is not reporting a Grand Design Imagine or a Keystone Montana.
Read these as reports, not as findings. Complaints are submitted by owners and NHTSA does not verify them; no complaint here has been confirmed as a defect, and none of them is a recall. The sample is also self-selected — only owners motivated to file appear in it — so a high count tracks how many units a line sold at least as much as how well it was built. Use the pattern, not the total: a component that keeps recurring is worth inspecting on any used unit. File or search complaints at NHTSA.
