Ours is a 2019 model, but we bought it in October, before Covid hit the US. Covid did affect us with parts/repairs after purchase, but when our rig was built, Covid had never been heard of yet.

Well I'm glad for you that it was something simple, but I'm also surprised that they moved even the little bit in your pics with the valve closed. I didn't think that was supposed to happen.
