Metal engine hatch grill

2016 Allegro Red 37PA.....Anyone else had an issue with the engine hatch metal grill grate coming loose and falling out of the fiberglass cover? Or am I alone on this? We have it reattached with a bonding adhesive and are hoping it stays put during travel. At the one year ownership mark, we've had a few instances of things going awry....window blind brackets breaking and the whole blind assembly falling on the couch and the engine hatch grill. Tiffin did send me new brackets for the blinds. Thanks Tiffin!! Hopefully, no more surprises!

Engine Hatch Issue

I have a 2016 37PA and have not seen any issue that you refer to.

I had it happen to me. Luckily it fell while sitting in a park and not traveling. I used marine epoxy to re glue it. I periodically check to make sure non of the mounting blocks have come loose. So far so good.

I just had that happen last week on my 2016 36LA. I am lucky the whole grill did not fall off.
Of the 5 points where there are metal blocks on the grill, only 1 had a heavy coat of epoxy and was still holding. I plan on re-setting with some epoxy this weekend, and clamping. Hopefully, this was a one time event.
