We started our first extended trip with our new 3790 this week. After the first 11 hour day on the road I opened the sliding doors on the closet and found the clothes rod with our hanging clothes lying on the floor. The screws had pulled out from the wall. Keystone had attached the rod to a hollow wall (approximately 1/4 inch thick) with screws with no sort of backing. I can't imagine how they think a 46" clothes rod even partially full would hold up screwd into a hollow wall. Unbelievable.

That was the first thing to go wrong on our new 2014 within a week. I used real 1x3 oak boards to do repair. Stained them to match trim and dresser in bedroom. Like Dick I mounted a regular round wood rod and never had an issue again while full timing.
I think on some units they have a piece of 1x2 pine up inside the ceiling that those little screws go into, and then in some units they either forget to put that backing board in or they miss it with the clothes rod screws.
