Our refrigerator wood grain panel on the door has shifted around and come loose on two sides. I tried to move iit back and it is almost too small to stay in place, part of the problem is the extreme heat here in Arizona drying out the wood, I suspect. Any one else experiencing this? ------------- BarbanJoe 010 Rpod 171 02 Jeep 4x4 12 Ram 1500 |

That pretty close to what I thought, but actually there are little clips on a strip that broken on mine and the dealer had to order a new strip for me. The Wood (facing) in not glue to the fridge (which was my thought), but just held in place. My Podterfly is in storage or I would take a picture to explain better. Hopefully someone can take the shot, do you have a dealer near you? Mine replacement was under warranty.

Yes, we have a dealer about a mile away. Were the clips in the removeable molding on the side of door or in the other tracks? ------------- BarbanJoe 010 Rpod 171 02 Jeep 4x4 12 Ram 1500 |

Can't tell ya, I have to look at it, (POD in Storage) and what I call clips maybe some kind of hook/molding on the track. Lee ------------- Still a work in progress, lots of pictures. http://podterfly.blogspot.com/ |

The "clips" are molded into the plastic strip. The snap into the face of the fridge door which hold the strip in place along with the two screws that are in the side of the strip. |

The clips were good, the dealer had 2 panels shipped but they were the same size as the old one and moved out of position so he ordered a new one oversize and cut it to fit better. As a side note reading many of these posts, I have had zero issues that weren't fixed promptly and my warranty is 2 years on the whole trailer since I extended it thru Forrest River for another $150. My dealer has no issues contacting the manufacturer and we get all the info we need. Compared to other vehicle purchases and dealers this is a pleasure ( look at toyota lately). ------------- BarbanJoe 010 Rpod 171 02 Jeep 4x4 12 Ram 1500 |
