Awning/Gutter loose

Noticed my awning just above the entry door had a gap between it and the RV side. After inspection, I noticed the screws, ALL of them were backing out from the gutter which also holds the awning. I was lucky to catch this before the entire thing came loose as we were heading down the highway.
I suggest a quick look at yours to double check. All the screws are covered with a vinyl strip, easy to remove and replace.
Our unit is a 2013 ST22BH so it does have some use on it.

Mine were also loose. When my trailer was brand new I went to check all the caulking and discovered the vinyl strip pulling out of the channel it was suppose to be in. The screws were backing out pushing on the vinyl strip. Caulked the screw threads and screw heads, installed the vinyl and ran caulk over the seam
