What's wrong?
The cargo tray on the 2019 Jayco Fifth Wheel North Point is the slide-out tray used to carry stored items outside the main living area. A stop bracket is fastened to that tray so the tray stays controlled at the end of its travel instead of moving past its intended stop.
On affected trailers, the bracket was secured with hollow steel rivets that do not have enough strength for the load. Those rivets can shear, which means the rivet body breaks instead of holding the bracket in place. Once the stop bracket is no longer secured, the cargo tray can detach from the trailer.
There is no warning sign before failure. An owner is not expected to hear, feel, or see a clear symptom before the rivets break and the tray loses its stop bracket.
