Molding coming loose
#3

The pop rivets on mine holding the stanchions on sheared because the rivets holding the skin needed replacing that are underneath the trim. I removed my door bell/intercom out of the way. The first stanchion from the door I left enough slack upon re-reveting it to let it pivot. I threaded the trim back on with the door open and slid the trim back in place by tilting the door end in the 2 o clock position, installed and then put the end screw back in. You get the long piece off with one person holding and pulling the trim while a second person hits it with a rubber mallet toward the rear of the coach. I had to pull both of those pieces and replace the rivets and the rivets in the stanchions. The trim starts to become loose when the hidden rivets under them shear. I think Tom may have done this on the drivers side of his coach. Get you a $39 air rivet gun at Harbor Freight or you will look like Pop-Eye trying to pop the rivets in by hand.
