I checked brackets and rivets, nothing cracked and no loose rivets. I'll add it to list of things to be checked occasionally. This an '05 with 75k miles.

Appreciate the heads-up. I checked brackets and rivets, nothing cracked but some loose rivets on the roof.
The camera display had some intermittency in the strong Banning Pass X-winds.

My temp fix was to resecure the un-imbedded wires with Etera-Bond tape; also bolstering over the loose rivets/brackets with it, until I find time to R/R the assembly.

I bought my coach without the spoiler. Was able to find one in Kentucky from Visone Used RV parts, but they wanted $600 to ship. So, I decided to repaint (not shown) the exposed area and now am working on fabricating a cover for the camera.

Fair enough. SS can be difficult.

Camera covered now. Had someone make me a camera box out of aluminum. Works well and looks good.
