I noticed some scratches on the wood ceiling trim on my 05 Patriot. The cause is that the Driver's side slide crown molding (top edge) rubs on the ceiling wood trim when the slide is retracted (pulled in). It doesn't look like the slide is sagging when it is fully extended as the paint lines match up nicely when the slide is out. However I noticed that when the slide is retracted the bottom edge of the outside wall makes contact before the top edge.
It's been almost 3-years now since I asked for a solution to my slide trim scraping on the ceiling trim when I retract the slide. That's how long it takes me to get something done...
The weather was nice today, so I removed that trim piece and cut off about 3/16 to 1/4".
I'm just posting now in case anyone else needs to do this - and is not sure how the trim is attached. There may be a way to raise the ceiling trim panel (rather than cut the trim) but that would have been a lot more work, and I had that ceiling panel down once before (to change rope lights) and it required that I rented a drywall lift to support/lower it. It's really heavy. But it is not loose, (it could be sagging some, as mentioned) but it is not possible to just loosen the mounting bolts and push it up higher. That is not the cause. I believe the cause is that the slide out room support/travel-rails have sagged over time letting the front top edge of room get too close to ceiling when the room is retracted.
Here's the procedure.
1) remove the side trim pieces. Pull out the wood plugs (two per side) and remove the screws behind them. Then remove the side trim pieces.
2) There are two metal tabs at the top. remove the screw (one screw per tab).
3) there is a large piece of velcro across the center of the upper trim piece. It is about 4 foot long. You need to pull the trim outward to break the velcro grip. Then slide some paint stirring sticks between the trim and the velcro so it doesn't reattach.
4) At the point you need to lift the trim and rotate it a little so the center" hanger" clears the top of the slide room frame.
5) cut the trim, stain (if desired. although no one can see that top edge cut). Reinstall, and job is finished.
