best option to fix bed sides

hello,

well 2 weeks into our FT in our new TT 13 keystone sprinter 300 kbs, and the paneling on the side of the bed is bulged out, and when you lift the bed up to get to the storage, the siding there too is coming out : ( brand new and all this

what would be the best way to fix it without damaging the paneling too much or if any.

we thought maybe a staple gun? as maybe a nail might split the wood or paneling. or would a skinny nail do the trick? or a pop rivet?

thank you for advice...

I had the same thing happen on the base panels on my bed. I took a hammer, tapped the panels back into place and secured in a few places with a staple gun.

Bed Sides

If you can get behind it you could use Liquid Nails or wood panel glue use a couple of small finishing nails to hold it in while the glue sets and dries. been there & done it.

we were at home depot and they didn't have the staple gun i needed but did see the liquid nails, we talked about it but since we never used it, we didn't know if it would work or not.

thanks for info.
