Seen this before ? Vinyl Floor .

Went and checked on the RV for the first time in 3-4 weeks and was shocked at what I found. The Vinyl floor was split almost the whole length of the RV. I'm sure it's cold weather related, Anyone see this happen before?

    I installed that in a rebuild and it spread apart at the seams. It was in the summer here and when it cooled down it shrunk. I ripped it out.Is there a certain type ,are they all the same. My rig now has peel and stick squares and some have loosened but nothing serious.

    Happens all the time. Vinyl is put on before all the partitions and cabinets, and cannot expand or contract when the temperatures change.
