New doors 233s

Just took a look at the new style doors installed on my 233s. Lots of issues!! The front door they did a while ago and was perfect.. It sits flush with the camper. The new doors they installed, sit flush at the top but at the bottom sides you can almost stick your pinky in between, they filled the gap with clear silicone, the did not seal the top of the door, there's gaps everywhere and if I didn't look up there they were gonna store it for the winter like this!! There is a dent in the trim of the rear door. The framing on the side door is bent and was bent back. So now I have to wait and see what their going to do, my service rep says it will probably need two new doors but now I gotta wait for forest river to decide. You should see how they ship these things no wonder they get damaged!!
The last two pics are the front toor which sits perfectly flush, they did this a while back..

You're really talking about the door FRAME, not the door. i.e., the part that's attached to the front/rear wall and doesn't move. Correct?

If you mean the door, then it sounds like the hinge is mounted out too far.

Yea the door frame does not sut flush on the two new doors they put in, the side and the rear ones, the front is perfect which they installed a few months ago, I looked at a few units on the lot and they all sit flush..

Woah, terrible job. I had all 3 of mine replaced and they look great. Sounds like its time to take it back and get it done right.
