entry door wedges

[ARoamer]

Had my pinacle 5th wheel entry door replaced under warranty due to grab bar rubbing a groove in the door when folded. My plastic door wedges on the new door are falling off, only stuck on with black butyl rubber. See pic. I'm guessing they should be screwed on and my dealer's service dept didn't. Can someone take a look at theirs and let me know if screws are indeed missing? Thanks!

I don't have a Pinnacle, and my North Point is in Florida while I'm up here in New York, so I can't look. But I can't imagine for my life that the wedge would be manufactured with a countersunk screw hole, and then intended to stay in place forever with the butyl tape.

I'm thinking that somebody forgot the final step. I would screw it in myself using the appropriate sized stainless steel screws.

I agree, it's an easy enough fix if screws are used, but if my dealer's service department didn't finish the job properly I want them to make it right. My RV is going back for another dealer service department rework so I would really like to know if the screws are indeed missing.
Kinda surprised I haven't gotten an answer here for such a simple issue.

Would someone please look at their door wedges and let me know if they are screwed on ??????

Hmmm, I don't have door wedges on my 5er!

Ok, thanks for checking! I have 4 on the latch side only. Maybe they aren't needed?

Just looked on my door and there are no wedges.
