Vista 27P Slide-Out Track

We just bought a used 2020 Vista 27P and we're hoping someone can please help answer this question.

On the bedroom slide-out, for the track that is closest to the rear of the unit, is it bowed out by design, or is ours possibly in need of repair? It is approximately 3/4"+ out from being flush. It seems to operate just fine without any unusual noises, but then again we are new to this unit so we may just not know what is usual vs. not.

All of the tracks on the kitchen slide are flush with the slide, as is the other track on the bedroom slide, so it caught our attention and we wanted to be safe before using it further.

Thanks for any input; we greatly appreciate it!

Vista 27p slide-out track

I've (hopefully) attached a couple of pictures of the rear slide, right hand side, that is in question, in case this will help for any of you that might have some feedback.

It looks like the "gap" may actually be by design, but again I'm no expert thus the reason for throwing this out there to all of you. The gaps on the left side of this slide, and those on the front slide, are all 1/2" or less by comparison. This one is around 1-1/4".

Thanks, again.

That's a PowerGear Slim Rack slide and the gear stands proud of the slide side by about 5/8ths or so of an inch.

But one side being bowed out twice that distance doesn't sound normal.

Keep in mind, your other slides may have different style slide systems - Schwintec, Thru-Wall, UnderWall. There are a number of styles.

Heres's a thread on a Jayco forum about the same thing:
