You might try the Search function. Squeaky floor problems in other locations and other models have been reported. Sometimes there's a good fix and sometimes we just live with it. I am in the latter with my rig's kitchen floor.

Good luck on your search. You might have to look in the archives.

Mine was doing the same thing. It was one of the crossbraces in the frame that was not welded properly. I had to cut the belly wrap to find it.

I bought a new model 3150 last June. This camper had a squeaky floor at sink end of cabinet. Instead of messing with dealer I used a wooden carpenter shim under end ,of cabinet and no more squeak. I expect the wooden shim to compress so my plans are to get a small plastic shim when squeak reappears. Worked for me.

You might want to make this a warrantee issue before your one year runs out.

I had the same problem. I removed 2 screws just inside the cabinet door that secure the toe kick to the floor. The squeak went away. If the same you should give it a try.

We have a 3455SA which has the same cabinetry for the kitchen counter as the 3400RL. We had the squeak in the floor in the same area you describe and took care of it the same way "Johnnyg" did by removing the screws for the toe kick. I first tried tightening them, adding a couple more and nothing took care of the problem until I removed them Good luck and let us know how it turns out.
