We bought this coach 11 months ago new. We have noticed that the edges of the roof havedeveloped ripples. Also there are small cracks appearing on the upper roof area.

We have had pictures taken by the dealer and sent to Winnebago for review and their recomendation. I have been told that there is a fix for the problem that installs a J strip on the roof and that 10" fibreglass is then placed over the sides and into the sidewall sealing moulding.

My questions are:
. Has anyone had this done and their experience.
. Should I hold out for new roof?

Need responses ASAP

Update - Winnebago has decided that they will replace the roof. We scheduled the replacement for this fall after most of the camping season.

Good going Winnie.
