Hi All,  I have a 6 month old Rpod 190 and recently noticed that with the kitchen slide fully retracted the supporting wall visibly bulges out in the center from the weight so that when a straight edge is placed flush with the top of the wall there is a 3/8" gap at the very bottom as the wall curves back in (meaning the wall is bulging out by 3/16" in the middle) (see arrow at Photo bottom).  Are other owners seeing this wall "flexing" and is it normal for other retracted Rpod slides?

Shouldn't be doing that, so seek assistance from the dealer that you purchased the unit from.  Working through the dealer with Forest River will be the best way to file a warranty claim.  Hope this helps
