Has anyone had a problem with a soft spot on the floor in front of the bath/shower.

I have an RPod 179 purchased in 2016. We have done five long trips in it with no noticeable problems

until the last trip we took in January. Thats when we noticed the soft spot. Have been in contact with Forest River and they are telling me that it's designed to be that way as there is a wire track that runs in that area.

Pods are generally configured the same for wiring, meaning the shore power connection is on the left side and the power systems are on the right. If in fact the power is run thru a channel from left to right, it would make sense to me we would all have a soft spot where that channel is, if you do. I have a 178, no soft spot. You didn't mention how big the soft spot is, but how big would that channel be? It's the 120VAC from left to right of the Pod.
