Wave in the exterior wall

I have a bit of a wave in the exterior wall of our Class C It is located behind where the fridge is located. Should I be concerned and take the fridge out to check to see if there is a leak?

Wave in the exterior wall

The “wave” could be a sign of a delaminating wall.

Pics are often more helpful than descriptions.

I don't know how well it would show up. Its more a "feel" the bump.

Angry Delamination

All I can say is that is really bad Karma. Likely a roof leak. You need to have that looked ASAP and fixed. We had a leak and had to get the ceiling and front wall in the bedroom replaced $2,500. Went to trade it in and the dealer saw the delamination, we never did. $4,000 If you ignore it you could get black mould growing, then things get even worse. Not good news at all

Why does the 'wave' make you think it's being caused by the fridge? What kind of fridge is it? Taking the fridge out might give you a better look at if there is a leak and where it is coming from.

Delamination does not necessarily mean a “leak” it could just be a bad lamination to start with.

Had that problem with my Cardinal on the 14 foot slide. $5,500 to fix it.
