Question Lower body panel popping out on 268BH

Howdy fellow GS owners!

Has anybody experienced the lower body panel sagging and popping out? My wife and I noticed this on the first trip in our new 2021 Ameri-Lite 268BH. I didn't think anything of it because there was only a small (maybe 3") section that had popped out, and it snapped right back into place.

However, it seems to be getting worse. At first, it was just a small gap, and now it's a few feet long. Unfortunately, the aluminum is now starting to wrinkle due to how many times I've had to put it back by hand.

I contacted my local dealer/authorized GS shop and sent the pictures below. They are going to submit it to GS for warranty repair since it's less than one year old. Just curious if anybody else has had this issue and what it was. I'm guessing improper install or perhaps not enough screws on the panel itself? I won't be certain until I bring it in and have them inspect it.

Thanks in advance!
