I checked the rollers and two of them had the plastic working itself off. I fixed that and pulled the wood scraps and pieces of wire and such out of the tracks just wondering if this is normal.
Thanks
I have a 2017 Challenger 37LX and the slides seemed to pull a little when coming in. I used the remote and looked at each roller and found 3 that were slightly too tight. I loosened them just a little so they rolled just fine. I have not had a problem since then. Then, I pulled out all of the drawers and vacuumed up all of the residual manufacturing leftovers with a shop vac (sawdust, screws, pieces of wood, etc) to make sure that nothing got in the way.
