Heat Shield Failure

On my way down to Florida this past November, a large heat shield on the curb side of my 2010 Bounder broke loose and dragged on the ground. Fleetwood had welded the approximate 5' by 10" shield on the edge of the metal shield. This is a very poor design. Has anybody else have this happen to them? If yes, how did you repair it?

Is this the heat sheild above the muffler? If so, any muffler shop could tack weld it back in place for you.

No. It was welded to the frame web along the exhaust system to protect the propane tank from the heat of the exhaust.
