I remember reading the threads on the slide bottom edges not being covered on some of the early Heartland products. I looked at my 2010 Cyclone at the time and took comfort in knowing mine had the "factory fix" which involved a small piece of trim applied to the edges.
After a weekend of washing, we pulled the slide back out only to find a black mark on the carpet. I went outside to inspect the slide, and I now see the bottom of the slide is rotting out just past the factory aluminum edging over a few square inches. The black undercoat is peeling back as well. I seem to have caught it quick enough to where it shouldn't be a huge deal to fix, but I am a little concerned as to what is the correct fix and what the problem really is. I'm assuming the little 1/2" L-trim they install might not be enough protection. Does it need to go back several inches?
Anyone else have this issue?
