Thought I'd update my Post regarding Baggage Compartment plates that were coming loose. Under warranty Curtis Trailers in Portland knows about the problem and has a fix. They applied Pop Rivets where all the screws that had come loose and wouldn't tighten. So obviously this Keystone Montana dealer knows and admits there is a problem and has a fix. This make me very happy camper.....
Keystone made the same repair to my Montana while they had it at the Cougar plant on Oregon. That was eight months ago. Here is how it looks today.





As you can see, there isn't much "meat" on the inside expansion of the pop rivets and consequently, they eventually pull out of the door.

My dealer repaired one of the other doors using wood dowels epoxied into the door and then screws through the bracket and into the dowels. So far that one is still holding (it was repaired six months ago).

Good luck with the pop rivets!!
