That's still pretty slim margin. Acceleration is deceptive.
Can you mount a temporary unit with more like a 20G range, to confirm
that you aren't seeing larger events?

I had a project where we were doing somewhat worse things to the PCBs,
but we were able to get the events DOWN to 2000G, with carefully
designed Norsorex dampers. We also had to pay careful attention to
mass distribution on the PCB so that we didn't flex much during those
events.
