    2022 roof membrane failure

    Just purchased a 2022 278BH, had it two weeks and the roof has failed. Have an appointment in 3 months at dealer for them to look at it. I sent photos to Grand Design and their recommendation is to put eternabond tape over it until it can be serviced.

    I’ve seen a lot of posts about bubbles in the roof but not much on how it was corrected. Does anyone have any personal experience with this and how did they repair it? Thanks.

    I definitely have no experience with an issue like that, but that sure looks like a replace, not repair. JMO anyway.

    That's the result of air getting under the membrane making it worse.

    Been there, done that. Have a new roof.

    2022 roof membrane failure

    Yep that Is the result of poor surface preparation and potentially lack of proper adhesive. New roof.
