Crack where countertop meets frame
Hello, I just got my 2121 23bhe and am getting ready to take it on a shakedown trip. One thing I had already noticed is that there is some separation where one of the trim pieces meets the countertop in the kitchen. I noticed if I pull up hard on the end of the counter, it does close the gap. Should I just re-caulk it and call it a day? Is there any structural problems? I am still in the 90 day adjustment period, but I am not sure if I should take it back to the dealer if this is very minor issue. Please see pictures. Thanks!

It's a known issue on that model with the wide countertop against the slide wall.
When the slide is extended, it closes up, right?Steve- Inventory Manager at Tom Schaeffer's RV, Shoemakersville, PA www.tomschaeffers.com

my previous post contains the pictures. I will check if the separation disappears when the slide is out.
Thanks

Be careful forcing it to do anything. There is a danger of the counter cracking (especially at the narrow spot by the sink) so any added pressure may be a problem. I would let it settle for a few trips then re-caulk.

Hello,
I just looked at it, and with the slide fully extended, the separation is actually worse. it opens up a bit just as the slide reaches full extension. I am wondering if there is something not fully secured, like the countertop.
Thanks,
Matt
