Puffy Flooring in Our Rockwood 2904SS

We've noticed a few spots on the flooring of our Rockwood that seems to be puffed up just a bit. (In two places by the back door and one place up by the bathroom.)

We asked our dealer and he said it's not anything to be concerned about because Forest River only glues the flooring around the walls and vents, not all over, because that helps prevent the floor from cracking during temperature changes. (Our last travel trailer, last winter when it got down to -20 below, had a big 4-foot crack when we de-winterized it this spring...luckily, it was mostly in the storage cargo so not real noticeable.)

Have you other Rocky/Forest River owners seen this, too?

Yes...I notice it on my 2604 right in front of the galley. When it gets cold the floor covering seems a bit loose and moves up and down slightly when walking on it. When the temp rises, the movement goes away. I have also heard that is related to not gluing the floor covering down.
