I believe in one of the earlier posts a dealer used rivets and they were pulling back out almost immediately.Mark & Midge

Paul,
Good information, and sounds like the molly rivets should work. I look forward to your review of the fix.Mark & Midge

Hi Mark & Midge (@Not tired, just retired),
We recommend installing a larger diameter screw, and installing additional screws in between the existing screws at the top of the rail.
Rivets are used for the awning arms only, and not the awning rail.
Best regards,

Ours has only been out a few times and it is pulling apart in the front. Hope this can be fixed with out too much trouble. Heading out for a two week trip.

The dealer added many rivets to the awning rail and said that that is what the factory recommends as a repair. The rivets are not holding any better than the screws. I am getting confused by the conflicting information.
Janice, is there a backer plate the full length of the awning? Do you have a PDF file from Lippert on the installation of the awning that you can send to me please.
Thanks,
JimJim and Cal

I don't know who J D is from Grand Design is but he or she told my dealer to use Molly rivets in the awning rail in place of the screws as I said in my previous post. Janice said to use larger screws. Hmmmm who is right. I'm leaning towards the rivet repair. As of now I haven't be able to find the Molly rivets at any local hardware stores. I'm going to check at Fastenal tomorrow.
