What's wrong?
The bed stay bracket in 2020-2023 Triple E Rv Wonder motorhomes is the metal locking support that holds the bed lid and mattress up while someone reaches the closet underneath. It works like a stay arm: once raised, the teeth and locking mechanism are supposed to hold the bed lid in place until the owner lowers it.
On affected motorhomes, the wrong left or right bracket was installed on one side of the bed assembly. That puts the bracket teeth in the down position instead of facing upward toward the bed lid, so the lock does not hold as designed. If the bed lid is jarred while someone is using the closet, the bracket can release and the bed lid and mattress can fall.
Owners can look for bracket teeth facing down instead of up. The bracket can also seem to engage at first, then release after movement or a light jolt.
