Just returned from a trip to Concord NC, to find that the one of the entire fascia assemblies (there are 4, at the side walls of each rear slide) on the door side slide had come completely off the slide rear wall. The only thing keeping it from falling on the floor (or furniture, tv, etc) was the wiring at the top of the fascia column. This is a major piece of wood assembly, not just a paneling trim... I'm going to tackle it this week to put it back on, on initial inspection looks like it was only held by #18 nails shot into it during assembly of the entire slide itself, with the outside finished part added somehow to cover the nails, so its a major problem (among many others, this coach has had) and I'm wondering if anyone has experienced this and what did you do to resolve it?
So far I don't see a way to get a air nail gun into the recessed area of the fascia piece in order to re-nail it, and it doesn't look like the outside trim can be separated from the base piece of the fascia. (Like it was built as an assembly before attaching the entire piece as the slide was built. On the remaining good fascia columns, there is no visible access to the nail fasteners, so this ought to be fun...
