Awning pulling away from wall

I have 2020 317RLOK fifth wheel
I noticed that the awning is pulling away from the wall at the front end of the trailer (about 6 inches).
Does that fall under the structural warranty. My 2-year warranty is up and I'm into my 3-year structural end of the warranty.
Has anybody had the same issue
Does anybody have the best solution to repair it so it doesn't get worse

Thanks

Do you have a picture of the separation? My awning bracket pulled through around the bolt heads at one point. Not sure if you are experiencing the same. But, it was a simple fix with some added washers.

You can bet that isn't considered a structural component!
You certainly need to address it because of probable water intrusion.
The answer to your question of best approach is really dependent upon exactly what is going on. If the bolts are loose and can be tightened or replaced, or additional fasteners installed and caulk/sealant re-applied, you may get away with a minor project.
