I took the family out for our 1st official camping trip this weekend and I discovered that my ENTIRE rear wall appears to have separated. This is a brand-new trailer that I picked up in February. Is this de-lamination or something else? Pretty much the only thing holding that panel on is the rear window and the side/top trim.
Phew! Thanks for the replies everyone. I guess I just didn't notice it before and it freaked me out. I'll go ahead and delete that video as well so no one runs across it thinking the same as me.
Just as S.A.D. indicated, it is not delam and it is perfectly normal. The rear of your trailer is not vacuum bonded so they can easily run the wires for the clearance and tail lights. Since the fiberglass is glued to the luan paneling underneath and the paneling is just floating over bat insulation, there's nothing to support it as firmly as where it's vacuum bonded.
Does not look like delamination. I have a 2013 keystone Laredo also and I do believe that is just the panel flexing. That back wall is hung with fiberglass insulation behind it. That is a luan panel with fiberglass gelcoat sprayed over it. Just the edge trim and applied items seem to hold it in place. I would still have the dealer look at it but I suspect they will also say that is not a problem. The sides and floor of the trailer are laminated.
I wish people on this forum would read the entire thread before responding.. The question has been asked and answered.
Now there will be 112 more replies by people (use a dumb person voice when you read this), "That don't look rite"... Causing the original poster to worry needlessly - and likely a useless trip to the dealer.
Keystone hangs the back wall of their trailers and laminates the sides. That is not delamination. You can breath easy. I'm not a fan of the way it looks but what you are seeing is they way they make their campers.

No. It is as designed. Your rear wall is not a laminated unit like yor side walls. It is layers, but held together by attachment points (ladder, windows, sides, etc).
Mine is aluminum but I think a lot of the fiberglass trailers are only laminated on the top , bottom, and both sides. I think the front on back are some times just loose fiberglass and normal insulation . Either way good luck!
