   Hey all we have a 2018 RPOD 180, so far so good!  Few minor issues that I have been able to repair. Due to Covid, trying to avoid dealer if I can. Our kitchen counter is on the slide out. The slide out moves in/out no problem. The issue is that the kitchen counter has sunk enough that the caulking broke away. I grabbed counter and it moved up/down a little.  Looked around for bolts or screws that I could tighten, can’t seem to find any. Has anyone had that type of issue?  If so, what can I tighten?  Thanks.

	There should be some sort of cleat underneath the counter against the wall that supports that side. That is the way it is on our 179. I can't imagine the 180 being much different. If there isn't a cleat under there, it might have gotten left off. If so, it is dimple to add provided you remember that screws can go no deeper into the wall than 1" or you will punch a hole through the side of your RPod. (been there, done that ).

	Thank you for the info! I figured something must be supporting it. Did You go through the stove opening or just took the drawers out? Tight space, like working on an old Honda!
