My door didn't warp - it was the hinges. It now closes OK, but if you look closely, the top of the door hits the frame on the trailer. The other thing I noticed the doors hit is the awning rail. So we have to be careful.
I'm not laughing for sure!!

But, as a recovering engineer, I just don't see why this can't be designed out of the units. It's not even lazy. This is bad enough, that it's willful neglect. This stuff should NEVER get to the first build, and shame on them if it does. BUT, once they know it's an issue, and someone at Keystone knows this is an issue, continuing to build product with an inherent flaw is just uncalled for...
