ALUMINUM SKIRT PANELS

I have a 2008 3605 (just bought it in nov) and found 7 of the steel screws holding the bottom of the aluminum body panels were holding nothing. It looks like the aluminum had corroded around the screw. I'm thinking that the electrostatic difference between metals has caused this. I removed screws and put on large washers to secure the skirts. Has anyone else found this problem?

I had mine parked in the winter on South Padre Island for 3 winters, I have many scars from that. My Hydraulic piston on the kitchen slide is so pitted, it tore the seal up. You are probably correct about the reason, but lucky it was an easy fix.
