I wondered about the alignment when I first got the unit early in the year, and on my recent trip of 3000 miles, the separation occurred. It doesn't seem like a major fix, but aligning the slide so it doesn't happen again might be! I echo your delight with the handling of the B+.

I have the chevy chassis and frequently forget that I am not driving a regular van.
