Your pics didn't come through. Suspect you talking about flooring billowed up?

[Idle_Idylist]

That's the wildest thing I have ever seen. It almost looks like something exploded in the wall, but that doesn't make any sense. The tin looks ripped.
Definitely one for the warranty department!

Is there anything on the interior wall or is it just the outside siding?

[RPAspey]

could something be going on at the frame? maybe twisted or something?

Try using "advanced mode" when you compose your post.

Right next to where you can select type face and font size is a smiley face and a paper clip.

The paper clip is the attachment manager.

Click on the paper clip; browse for the photo you want to post and click upload.

You can preview the post to make sure the photo is there before you click submit. I can clean up the bad posts if you would like.

i had a fleetwood that did the same thing. found out the front edge of weatherstripping was coming off and air got under the metal siding and BAM. it pushed out the seams where the sheet metal had the interconnecting lips. i pushed it back in and sold it. told the buyer about though! i didn't know how to fix it other than take it to a dealer's shop.

I have a 21rr and noticed the siding was bulging outward on both sides above my windows. I took it to the dealer and they repaired it, said the factory failed to staple some of the siding. I'm guessing you had staples missing and air got under the siding.

Sure looks like water damage to me. There is what appears to be rust stains from rusted mounting hardware and mold stain.

Thanks for your replies. I took it in this morning and it was in fact the staples had came out and i had a blow out. @Herk I think the rust is just from the putty knife i had to Macgyver it back together with in the pouring down rain.
