The sad part about all this Jim, is that there are so many new RVer's just starting and they have no idea until this happens, i took me 3 years unfortunately to find this out the hard way, and now I'm stuck with a huge job on my hands.
Myself and my wife went with a GDRV because we heard a lot of good things about them, and we liked their story on how they came to business, but i guess they are all the same, once you buys its now your problem.
Me and my wife are going back and forth if this video should be our first video on our still brand new youtube channel (no videos posted on it yet we are very shy :-) )

I have a 2017 2800BH,and I'm having delamination. My major patch is under the Oven vent. Mine is not next to the slide. (But I am going to check that gasket you've pointed out)

Jim the problem is doing it to the slide rough opening, you would have to remove the entire slide, for me to fix my delamination ( inserting epoxy into wall ) i have to drill holes in my wall since its next to the slide bracket.
Just a thought at this point where there may be other methods to ensure the outer luan panel does not become compromised.

I'm pretty sure I can hear everyone saying, "oh man, I better check mine" after seeing your video. First, thank you for sharing that information, giving everyone a heads up. Second, I really hope Grand Design comes through for you on this. Unless you knew how that corner was built, I'm not sure how someone would know to look for this to be honest. Again, thanks for sharing!
Also check around your inlets, lights, doors, windows, and water inlets. They only put caulking on the top half of it ( from 11 to 2 referencing a clock).
Thank you for watching Stephen

It would be nice if Grand Design put out somewhat of a Technical Bulletin of areas to check, and notes about roof and wall seals, and include stuff like this. Like you said, if someone doesn't know to look for this or potentially take everything apart, it's super easy to over look. But, I am sure there is huge legal implications doing that, since if the bulletin misses something, who is liable?2019 Imagine 2400BH
