Angry Slide out issue 2011, 360

Well had coach less than 1 month, and when bringing in the dinette/fridge slide, I did not notice it was binding until the ornate corner piece came flying off and cut my arm. I stopped and examined and saw the corner piece had gotten jammed against the strip of wood that hides the sliding doors. further observance proved that with out corner piece, the slide should come in and it did. Problem was that the slide got "cocked" due to couch end moving faster than the fridge end. Coach has been in shop for over two weeks to figure out that a small approx 1" valve is the demon. Equalizer systems, mfg for slide and jacks, reportedly put a non restricted valve on on end of slide and caused the problem. They, Equalizer, were supposed to air freight the part over night on Thursday last week, did not happen. Waiting to see about Monday.

Ok, thanks to the Super Crew at Forest River, Michael Burns and John Armstrong, I will be picking my coach up tomorrow, repairs have been made and these guys have been very forthcoming in A+ Customer Service. Happy travels to all.
