Is there a warranty on a schwintek slide?
If no joy give Grand Design a call. Perhaps there is a mobile RV tech in your area that can get to the bottom of this under warranty. They have always said they will work with any company that will work with them on warranty issues (except CW apparently). You are not stuck waiting on your dealer.
