Fiberglass "delamination" on my Kodiak 195.

So in addition to other problems such as bunk end fabric ripping from seal and replacement not fitting properly, the water tank fill hose leaking inside the trailer, and the water pump now going, NOW I have a large "bubble" between the fiberglass and wood backing on the front right side of the trailer. Starts near the bottom edge of the trailer and goes up at an angle to about halfway up at the front right corner. I can find any breaks in the caulk or seals to denote water leakage. Is there a way to fix this?

What year is your Kodiak? What did your dealer say about the bubble?

It's a 2009 195. The dealer no longer sells Kodiak because of too many warranty issues. Go figure.

I was just looking and found this thread.... I too have an issue with the front panel of our slide coming apart from the bottom. It's up about 8" all the way across the bottom. I'm fixing to call our dealer. We'll see what he says....

I just got off the phone with our dealer. They wanted three pics emailed to them to send to Dutchmen. Said approval should take 2 days; parts may take up to a month, but the work should be done in their shop. That thought has me a little worried.... Their service guys are friendly enough, but remind me of weekend warriors. Pray, saints!
