Coroplast Down!
3rd trip out with the Solitude and saw that the coroplast ripped out of the aluminum trim when I stopped for fuel along I-70 in Kansas heading to Colorado. Doubtful that the coroplast was very far under the trim in the first place. Luckily I had some of the wide coroplast tape so went to work trying to get it back under the trim and taping the edges and tears. After about 90 minutes of work, seems to have held the rest of the trip to Colorado Springs. Will likely do more taping before heading home. Hopefully will get this replaced correctly under warranty.

Wonder if it was cut to short of maybe water that forced it off, something you might never know. But it being cut and not 1 continuous length leads to the though that the dealer might have fixed a leak b4 you took possesion and did not do a great job replacing it

I think it was cut too short from the factory. The curb side parts that were still under the trim were barely under the trim. Glad I had bought that wide coroplast tape a few years back. It was expensive but handy to have for sure.

Really not what you want to see on trip. Marcy @WhittleBurner is right, it should be 1 continuous piece.
