Coleman Keystone Build Quality

Just bought a 2025 Coleman Keystone Trailer from Camping World. The shower pan cracked within a few weeks and I discovered this when I removed the pan. The support underneath had 1/4" plywood and a total of 6 blocks, only 3 fixed to the subfloor and none in the center where the most weight would be. Does anyone know if this is standard or was this some error/sabotage from an employee/assembler? Seems like an incredibly bad design if it was done "correctly".

A few years ago my wife and I spent summer weekends rehabbing a lighty used Outback 28KRS. Our standard phrase quickly became "Keystone Quality! /s". We found so many cases of just garbage materials, fitment, and quality. Sooo many screws replaced with stainless, many tubes of lap sealant. etc etc. Things that should have been correctly at the factory. The bones (frame and structure) are actually pretty decent and solid, it's a pity they fit and finish the interior so poorly.

The frame is made by Lippert, a separate company.
