Hatch doors

I think you are referring to your front compartment baggage door (sewer pull - not sure what that is). Sounds like they failed to install the rear “stop” screw in the hinge extrusion, and then failed to make sure the latch was adjusted properly to actually lock the door in place. You took off and the latch came undone - then the door started flopping in the wind and worked its way off the hinge extrusion and onto the side of the road. Check the side and skirt to see if the door damaged or scratched anything else and you can have the fix those scrapes too!

And in 8 to 12 short weeks you will get your unit back from the dealer...just kidding...maybe four short weeks.

Also - I think every RV maker uses doors just like that one. I have never seen them any different. I bought one for my Alpenlite 15 yrs ago from a company called Kinro - but they are all just alike. The hinge extrusion will be the same also...they are all just alike.
