Cracked floor tiles

March 30, 2005, 07:54:29 pm

Our Intrigue has recently developed multiple cracked tiles in the kitchen area. Generally between the refig. and the kitchen slide out.
Several tiles are lifting in the corners. We have contact C.C., but they had no suggestions as to the cause.
I had a similar problem with a 99 Monaco Windsor, after multiple trips to the factory, and several unsuccessfully repairs it was determined to be a problem with the floor bracing. Which they then successfully fixed. Has anyone encountered this type of problem with a similar model C.C. I am reluctant to just go in and replace the broken tiles with out fixing the cause.

Thanks

I have seen cracked floor tiles in several Monacos, but this the first I've heard of it in a Country Coach. Cracked floor tiles are usually an indication of excessive flex. This flex could be in the subfloor, or the basic frame. I would highly recommed you take it to a qualified technician to find out where the problem is. Most likely replacing the tiles will just lead to the new ones cracking also.

Per

95 Affinity on a Gillig chassis

Granite floors with no cracks so far.
