Ubuntu – /usr/sbin/grub-mkconfig: 1: /etc/default/grub: If: not found

When I run sudo update-grub2 or sudo update-grub

I get the response

Sourcing file `/etc/default/grub'
/usr/sbin/grub-mkconfig: 1: /etc/default/grub: If: not found

However, my /etc/default/grub file is definitely there. The contents are as such:

 If you change this file, run 'update-grub' afterwards to update
# /boot/grub/grub.cfg.

Any clue what the error could be? Thanks!
