Stress Crack

I was washing our new trailer this weekend after our long voyage from Connecticut to Disney and back. I like to keep it clean and inspect everything, when I found a small crack about an inch to and inch and a half long extending from the fwd bottom corner of the fwd right hand slide cut out. just above and to the right of the factory cut expansion joint that should prevent this from happening. I will be taking it in next Monday to have it inspected and see what Keystone wants to do for repairs. I hope the frame is ok and it was just some flex from the really crappy roads. hit some good bumps heading down I95. alot of bouncing coming off of overpasses and small bridges, and I dont drive over 65MPH.

Just an update. Dealer has the trailer, I do not believe they have opened it up yet, but they also feel it is probably structural. They took more pictures and sent to Keystone. They are also requesting Keystone repairs at the Factory fall rally in Goshen, as we will be there. I will hopefully know more soon....
