Now for the bad. I found 2 leaks on the drivers dash, one in the center, one on the drivers side. Another leak in the cabinet above the couch, and another in the bedroom. These weren't a couple drop leaks either. It was raining and had a couple puddles.
Sounds just like mine. If there's no obvious damage to the ceiling, it will probably be okay once the roof is sealed up. Unless they guy happens to have the right materials laying around (Eternabond or EPDM Liquid Roof) he's not going to fix it today. If he claims to fix it today, you can be sure it's not going to be done right. I sealed mine with Liquid rubber - every seam and joint where there was a hole in the roof. It takes several hours on a warm, dry day to do properly.
The leaks on the dash are common. It's the windshield. I haven't located mine yet. I have a bucket sitting on the dash right now collecting rain water. I *think* it's where the windshield frame meets the body rather than the rubber surround where the frame meets the glass. My rear back glass is leaking in a similar manner (found that out this morning).
