Hello all - first time on the forum!

We bought a slightly used pod 172 from a dealer last year and have recently returned from our second trip - a week in Yosemite.  We loved the Pod and all the great amenities, but on the way home noticed that the front panel was separating from the side (see pic).  It is no longer under warranty and Forest River thus far is saying it is not a mfg defect. The dealer has not been very helpful either.  I am looking for a few things:
Advice on how to proceed w the dealer or Forest river.  Is it worth pushing the issue?

Second   - seems like I could repair it myself, but I need direction.  Longer screws would be a start, but truthfully I don't see how the trim piece comes off to access the current screws.  And what would I use to re-caulk?

Thanks for any help.

Hiya,

If you are a Facebook person, you might try going over there and asking this question, since you don't seem to be getting any answers here.

Go here and ask to be added,  then the owner of the group will PM you and when you answer him, he'll add you.
