Chassis flex...interior doors wont stay closed when hitched

Picked up new Fuzion 420 fifth wheel and when it is on ground both of our two bedroom and bathroom hinged doors will stay closed. When hitched on truck it seems to be flexing and doors wont close so has some flex. These two doors are next to each other in front. Its not that the doors rub on the door frame and wont close into the frame, just the knob latch wont engage properly to latch. My previous Weekend Warrior had only one hinged door but did not have this issue. How concerned should I be or is this common and just need a slight adjust on the door handle latch.

Ours will stay closed, but I did put a magnetic doorstop to hold it open since it would sometimes swing closed if we're not perfectly level. We now travel with it open and it has worked well.

Not normal. Good test to see if your dealer is capable of fixing anything. If un-fixable, I'd bungee or remove them so they aren't swinging wildly. Good luck.
