    Thumbs up LP gas hose kinks when Kitchen slide out is extended on Momentum 25G!!!!

    We took delivery of our 2021 Momentum G-Class 25G last late last summer and all was great until the 3rd trip. I noticed on the second trip our range top burners were not as powerful as when we bought it but worked so I figured it was my tank or regulator being goofy. On the 3rd trip out our burners would not light at all so I figured the regulator stopped working. I swapped tanks and tried everything but the burners would not light. When we got home I tried the burners and they worked great. The difference was that the slide out was retracted. It was getting very cold so I decided to winterize the unit and work on the issue come better weather.
    After winter, I extended the slide out and again, burners did not work. After troubleshooting I found that the lp hose was wire tied and taped to the slide out wiring and was clearly crimping when the slide out was put in the extended position. I have called Grand Design, sent them a video of what was happening, got a Case number and took the rig to Blue Dog RV in Redmond Oregon where I bought it for warranty repair. Over a month later and many calls and getting ignored I demanded that the unit was repaired and delivered back to me. Blue dog did nothing but move the hose up a bit taped it and wire tied it much like before and yes it is currently working but I can see where the hose is starting to kink again so I know the problem will arise again.
    Has anyone out there had this same problem??? I am having a difficult time with Grand Design and of course Blue Dog (Don't ever go there for anything). I will post what the resolution ends up being when I get that resolution.

    This could be a serious Safety issue. I would mention that fact to those that need a little motivation. It has been documented already. They should be wanting it taken care of.
