Fiberglass Cracks

Has anyone experienced fiberglass cracking due to structural weakness in the front of there Pinnacle, I have had this problem since I first purchased this 5th wheel. I has been repaired several times but still cracks.

There are several of us with Pinnacle and North Points that have had the issue. You mention having the repair done several times, so I assume that's simply a fiberglass repair. Your best bet is to have the Jayco recommended repair done as that includes adding structural components to eliminate the flex that's causing the crack in the first place.

Fiberglass Cracks

The repairs I spoke of were Factory authorized and guided structural repairs on the frame with lots of additional aluminum welded in but still cracking.
