Refrigerator not secured in 2109s

I’m wondering if anyone has experienced an issue with the refrigerator not being properly secured in the spot for it?

I just picked up my 2109s Rockwood mini lite on Saturday. As I was home and starting to load stuff into the trailer. I noticed the fridge was sitting cockeyed. The bottom of the fridge was sticking out about 3 inches and the top, less than an inch. Yesterday, Monday I took the trailer back to the dealership. They weren’t able to fix the situation yesterday and I had plans to go camping last night, so they told me to bring it back in when I returned from camping. After getting home with the trailer, I used another vehicle to run and get supplies and when I got back and open the door of the trailer, the fridge had fallen forward against the cabinets above the stove. I pushed it back into its spot. I cancelled my trip and this morning, I dropped off the trailer at the dealership. When I arrived back at the dealership, about 5 miles travel, I found the fridge tipped forward, leaning against the upper cabinet again.

Moved thread from the General Tech and Repair section to the Rockwood sub-forum since the OP's questions are specific to a Rockwood product and not general questions.

Leaning Fridge

I have a Mini Lite 2511s. That happened to me as well .. they had to pull the fridge and reinforce the supporting wood.

Then, I brought it hope and found the floor scratched up when I opened the slide out. A screw or nail was stuck, and they had to fix the floor.

The fridge was fine until I heard a piece of wood fall. It was leaning slightly. I glued two L brackets together, then pushed the top of the fridge to align straight and slip the L brackets in (with just a touch of glue on both sides connecting to the wall and fridge). It seems to be fine.

Funky and poorly installed bracing I guess. Mine sits in the slide out along with the fridge. There is a wall separating the fridge area from the couch area.

Good luck. I'm taking a long trip shortly and I'll see if the L brackets continue to hold up.
