I'm not so sure the dealer knew it, why would he? I'm betting dealers take delivery and never climb on the roof. No reason to do anything (pay some one time to inspect every unit) until it's sold.
Doesn't excuse him refusing to fix it or refusing to return deposit, but it was probably a surprise to dealer too.
How many here believe he would have seen it?
When I worked part time at an RV dealer after retirement when a new unit came in it was inspected for any damage prior to accepting delivery and this included the roof as the shipper could have damaged it during delivery. If the shipper damaged it had to be noted at that time not 6 or more months later. There were a couple of them that they made the shipper haul back as it was damaged and the dealer did not want to take responsibility or headache to try to repair it.
Shipper also had to wash the unit before the dealership accepted the unit. This made it eaiser to see any damage.
