I totally understand how they can put something in the maintenance section of a manual and the owner should follow.

That said, I don't know any other vehicle or structure where if you don't caulk the roof it peels off. What happened if it came off entirely and caused an accident? Who is at fault? It's a huge onus to shift back to the owner of the coach for such an obvious engineering fail. If this happened in the auto industry the media would be all over this and it would a massive recall if not fines. In the RV world it gets shrugged off and they keep making them that way - knowingly of the issue.

On most coaches, heck every other coach, if you don't caulk it, then you develop a leak. Easily fixable and shame on me.

In this case it's a catastrophic failure and in my opinion completely irresponsible of the manufacturer.

To the OP, I hope this goes the way you want it and the manufacturer owns at least part of the responsibility. What a kick in the gut.

Cmon! How many rubber roofs you seen driving down the road like a balloon, or hanging off the back after they shred off. Your kind of inflating the hazard there a little.

No, He's not, don't take it personaly cause you own a Winnebago product
