Gosh..The things I mentioned are fairly common and have been experienced by many. We had the top of the bathroom door pull away because a craftsman put the hinge pin in upside down.. It just fell out the bottom due to bouncing down the road. Also had to do a repair on our rear closet doors today as they would not close properly . Except for the single screw on that far right (looking at it) all the screws were loose and working out of the top track, again due to bouncing down the road(who would have thunk that would happen) they were short screws to boot, simple fix, Longer screws and some shims.We are long timers and do 12K+ miles per year in this 3400 and live in it 6/7 months of the year.These are Recreational vehicles and we subject them to stress they are not designed for. You can keep ahead of the game by reading this forum on a regular basis and benefiting from what other have experienced and how they repaired the issue. Did not mean to be scary..these are normal everyday things for me. just part of Rv'ing.
