Larry. I am not a now it all. But in IMHO your rig's roof seals should not be in that condition after just 16 months. I'm guessing that you bought it as a new TT. The pics you have, were they taken at the dealership? If not, there may be some underlying problem. They still should repair, refund your $$, or sell one to you that looks like and is new, not a rental, loaner, or used rig. I do get on the roof of my 14 year old Jayco TT two or more times yearly to inspect, clean, and repair anything I notice. The cracks in the lap caulk on my TT do not appear to be near as bad as the pics you have. My roof still has a nice white color to it also. It does and will loose some of the white color when washing but that is normal. The cracks I posted about are not deep, or look deeply open. I had my son to get up on it and use "Dicor Self-Leveling Lap Sealant - White" to seal the cracks in the seals.
I hope you can resolve the problem easily.

If you don't get up on your roof and check the caulk yearly you could be in for some expensive repairs. My trailer was manufactured in June 2006 and the below pics were taken in Oct 2007 during my PDI just 16mos after the original caulk was put on a virgin roof.
