It appears to be a serious design flaw, executed badly in construction. While I am not an RV design specialist, I am a Civil Engineer with 50 years of commercial building experience. Never in anyone's right mind would design a structural wall that is TOTALLY unsupported and attached with only #6 screws through a 1/16" thick aluminum angle. Aluminum has a place in construction but it's NOT for structural use.
DRV in Howe has essentially just given me the finger about accepting responsibility for their inadequacies, so it's game on. I will flood social media with this issue and make it my mission to discourage ANYONE from investing in their products.
Good

Are you on facebunk as well?
