2020 Slide out pulling off exterior trailer wall

Anyone experience having the slide out pulling out the frame screws from the trailer wall, leaving a .25in gap for water intrusion when driving? I've had it repaired twice by Winnebago maintenance. First time, they put larger rivets in... for the rivet heads to break off. This last 'fix' they put oversized hex bolts in. I'm not convinced the fix is the issue.

I believe when the rig is traveling down thru construction sites on I-95 and jostling around that the slide out is acting like a canteliver beam and flexing up/down on the inside free beams; thus, flexing the wall frame from the lower edge.

Thoughts???

Endless hours of boredom rewarded only by the occasional detection of an enemy submarine. But every night in a warm bed with hot meals. Such a deal.
Thank you for serving.
