Any recommendations EPDM roof separation.

You must of expected that answer from Heartland,I do not know Of ANY RV MFG that would fix an issue with a 3 year old RV (some MFG's have a 2 year Warranty),sorry that happened to ya but folks have had ALOT worse things go wrong with their 3 year old rigs I do not own a Heartland but know many that do and most are happy with their customer service and RV but THAT is why I have a 7 year Extended warranty on mine because sometimes S... happens on these hand build rigs that are built as fast as they can

Sent email below along with pics to heartland.

Gary: Have a 3 year old 3260 Heartland Bighorn and in the last few months have noticed the Aluminum warp on the roof that runs the length of the trailer is separating from the underlaying luan board thus lifting the rubber roof and there is a 1/2 to 3/4 inch separation between the first and second sheets of the underlaying ply-board/luan board starting at front cap. Pictures attached.

last 6 of VIN: 275711

Why should this be happening on a 3 yr old 5th wheel. Any recommendations to correct the problem and what can Heartland do to assist in fixing the problems?

There answer:
-After reviewing the photos this is what our opinion is with these two issues.The gap in the decking is more than likely where we make the natural break at the front. The radius looks pretty normal form the pictures. We can offer suggestions to fix it if you feels it’s coming loose, but no coverage for any repairs.


Thanks

They must believe all us 5th wheel owners are idiots to believe **** like this. Will spend the rest of my RVing days recommending anyone that asks to stay away from Hearltland products.

I had a repair done to an EPDM roof once after running through a sharp tree branch. It worked out great but be sure whoever does it really knows what they are doing. I talked to the guy quite a bit about it and you MUST use the right stuff and do a lot of prep work. It's all about getting the patch and the original surface to mate together and bond.

pjberny5, If you are unable to get any satisfaction from Heartland, and wish to keep the unit....I have a suggestion, though it's a bit pricey!

We just (about 3 weeks ago) returned home from Mesa,Az. getting our roof completely redone by APR RV. They use the RV FlexArmor system. It comes with a lifetime warranty!

We were going to post pictures and some details of our work... but can't seem to "gittr done"!

The RV FlexArmor installation locations are in Florida, Mississippi, Texas, and Arizona. We will soon have pictures and details of our experience....I promise. I will post in the General RV section.

Sounds like poor workmanship to me. Contact the factory, supply pictures and see what they have to say.
