Doors jammed shut

New 2016 Signature Ultra Lite 8325ss. Have taken 2-two day trips. This is a two week trip. The first night when we stopped both the bathroom and bedroom doors were jammed tight shut! We couldn't even turn door knobs. My husband is wondering if the aluminum frame couldn't handle the roughness of going over Hwy 88 in California and it just tweeked it so badly they jammed shut? It took over 1/2 hour to finally get them unjammed. Has anyone else ever had a problem like this? I always figure its best to "shut" them before traveling so they don't "slam" and get tweeked that way. So they were shut when this happened.

Had you leveled the RV when the doors were stuck?
Wondering?

I don't remember. It was very level where we camped at, not requiring any leveling blocks.

Don't use stabilizer jacks as leveling jacks.

I always close all my doors when we travel, but they never stuck. Do they close and open now as normal? I would think that if you tweaked your frame it still would be tweaked.

Yes... thank goodness...they work fine now. It was just so weird!! I mean, my husband was really perplexed, (but persistent...) and he finally got into both of them!
