In For Repairs update

Our Montana is in the dealer shop for repairs. When we had company the Lady sat in the chair close to the wall (she weighed 120 lbs. soaking wet) and we head aloud cracking sound so they said the large slide will have to come out for repair to the floor. On a trip 2 weeks ago the slides started to come out while we where driving, This is the RD time this has happened. On the other two occasions we have had 1 cylinder and 2 pumps replaced. While the insurance inspector was looking at it he thought we might have some cracks around the kingpin mount. The dealer is going to do the repairs while we are away for a month so hopefully it is ready to go when we come back.
They have pulled the carpet out with no signs of a cracked floor and no water stains. The slide will have to come out to replace the floor then we will see if there is a crack on the bottom or lamination of the plywood. At the same time they will replace the slide cylinder. Right now it looks like we will have to foot the bill ($4000).
