2017 29 FE slider screws

I was noticing today that when my slides were out and I could see the slide rails that one of the rails has only one screw holding it on while the rest have a screw in every hole, about 8, holding them on. Is this an issue I should be worried about? Does Thor or the RV dealer that sold me the vehicle, used no warranty have to fix this? Thanks!

Replace screws now. Can't believe slide is not binding.

screws

yes mine is still lined up. Has not caused any trouble as of yet. I will have to pull one of the other screws to get the size right.
