closet coming apart
Our stacking unit in our bedroom keeps coming apart. The wall in the hanging closet keeps coming separated from the shelving. 2014 Montana 34555a. Anyone else have this problem and how did you fix it? Thank you.

Same here. Not the same wall, but putting some real wood behind it and then using screws instead of staples did the job for us.

It was an issue for our 3455SA as well. The wall between the hanging closet and shelf closet (where the plumbing for a W/D is located) kept coming apart. I added some wood, glue and real wood screws instead of the staples. Fine so far.

Solution for my similar W/D-closet space from the factory service center was to trim the bottom of the dividing piece so that it wasn't so close to the floor, and add a trim piece to the corner with additional staples. It has held up for many miles since. Of course, adding some solid wood to the equation would not be a bad option too. But getting the bottom part of the panel up away from the moving floor(travel motion) is probably the most important part of the fix.

We have a 2013 3402 RL and had the same problems last year. My wife caught the wall bulging out as I was hooking the trailer up to the truck. Took it to our dealer who contacted Keystone. The decided we had a cracked frame in less than 5000 miles. They took it back to the factory for repair and it has been fine since.
Now the generator may or may not run and at most for 30 minutes and we have staples working their way up under the roof membrane.

Bending wood and bulging panels are also a good sign that your frame is coming apart because of inadequate and poor welds.
