Catastrophic damage to a Grand Design, Part 2

#image_title

In Part 2 of our RV back wall disaster series (read/watch Part 1 here), my wife, Ashley, and I dive deeper into the structural damage plaguing this 2022 Grand Design Reflection 31MB. The issues are more extensive than initially thought, affecting both the interior and exterior of the unit.

Investigating the structural issues

First, we explore the obvious structural damage to the unit, revealing problems both inside and outside.

The wall between two slide-outs moves over an inch when the slide-out is operated, indicating severe instability.

Detailing the damage

Metal shavings are found on the floor, suggesting wear and tear that could lead to further problems.

Batten moldings are coming loose, compromising the unit’s structural integrity and aesthetic appeal.

Rub marks from the refrigerator indicate misalignment and potential damage to interior components.
