Our 2021 DS should be on here…door on passenger side opened while getting on I-24 near Chattanooga about a month ago. Heavy traffic and thank God I was in the truck ahead of the hubs in the rig. I forced him to pull over on the on ramp. We had to duct tape it closed.

We had a mobile tech come and he spent two hours adjusting it to secure it. Said it’s a problem with Newmar’s. Duh.

We were saved because we were only driving 100 miles to the next campground and it didn’t seem worth hooking up! I was constantly looking in the rear view mirrors watching him driving the rig. I saw the door swing open and a small table go on to the road!

We were ready to get on to I-24 towards Chattanooga. Crazy traffic.

We were at Newmar less than 3 weeks previously and another passenger side door wouldn’t close. They spent 3 hours trying to adjust it and finally got it to “bite”. They actually didn’t charge us for that. Was totally shocked by that!

These doors are an issue for sure.
