Rockwood 2811vs slides

Looking for experiences with slides. Ours seems to be acting as if they get jammed as they go out. Could this be a leveling issue or a problem with slides? Really looking for any comments good or bad on this 2017 2822vs.

How cold is where you are located? With the oil being thicker in the cold, it may hinder action.

Yesterday first day above freezing in 5 days and just moved from storage to house. Seems as if they slide ok then bind. Camper bought last feb and should still be under warranty. When I had it winterized I ask dealer to align slides but he said warranty on slides runs out after first 90 days. I called factory and left messages on 2 occasion and still no call back.

First off your "Stealer" lied to you! Your unit has a 1 year Warr. Depends on which slide system you have in regards to "Adjustments" there can be several! Post the Name of your "Dealer/Stealer" that way other Members can have "Prior Knowledge"! Youroo!!

You need to contact FR for other dealers or contact an independent RV shop to see if they'll do the work and get pre-approval from FR.
