SO I am wondering if the small walls, end walls of large slides on winnebago's are supposed to be laminated? So not the exterior wall (large surface) but the depth walls of the slide. On our 3 week old 31bhds it is obvious that the skin on the exterior of that small wall on the rear end of our large living dining slide is completely delaminated and bulged out, like you secured a panel on top and bottom but it was too long and bulges out in the middle. Its very easy to depress and obviously either not supposed to be laminated or is completely delaminated. I am going to mention this to my dealer if the consensus is that this is not normal, but I fear what the fix might be.
I'd probably call Winnebago Towables and get the details on the construction of that wall (for my own education), then take it to the dealer for adjustment/repair as needed. I don't believe the slide end-walls are laminated like the larger "side walls" of the units. You could very well have a a piece of luan (covered with fiberglass) that was cut too long or fastened short of the target.
I was just at the dealer today. Most of my trailer arrived on the lot today. Anyway, both "my" trailer and another that had just been delivered had noticeable bowing of the slide end walls. It was not delamination, just an outward bowing of the luan. I didn't notice it until I was on the roof looking down (it is obvious relative to the slide tracks).
I think it is normal for Winnebago, but my sample size is admittedly quite small. I was completely distracted by other issues and forgot to even inquire about it. I'll put it on my list of questions for Saturday's return visit (taking my wife this time).
