Hi guys,
I’m close to doing a deal on a brand new 2022 Montana 3855BR (beautiful unit!), but I have noticed there is a bulge on the wall of the passenger side of the unit right at the curve of the upper deck. It’s about a 1/4 inch bulge outward and 4 inches tall.

I’m including a photo, the pic makes it look a bit worse than it does in reality, but it’s definitely pronounce. The other actions that appear in the pic are reflections and nothing on the wall. I’ve marked the actual bulge with an arrow.

It’s rock solid feeling at the bulge so I don’t think the wall has become delaminated but I’m wondering if it could be a sign of something not being put together right or some flex going on during its trip from the factory? None of the other units at the dealership have this.

What do you folks think? Is it anything to worry about and have you seen anything like this before at this location on the wall of a Monty?

Thanks for your thoughts.
