Purchased a used Jay Featther

We purchased a 2006 Jayfeather travel trailer. The ceiling was wavy and was told it does not leak. One side of air conditioner ceiling is kind of soft. We took it to a dealer to get the inside ceiling fixed and was told it is not possible. Jayco has a all in one roof ceiling. Not worth fixing,it would cost more than it is worth. Since we just bought it and it is now ours, does anyone have any suggestions? I do not know if it leaks as it is winter. HELP!!! No sign of water damage except wavy and soft ceiling in one spot.

    Sounds to me like the leak is near the air conditioning unit. I suggest finding where it is leaking, and fixing that first. Then, there are many options to fix and dress up the ceiling inside.
    Removal of the soft interior ceiling will easily reveal the black water-damaged area where the roof is leaking. Just be careful if you walk the roof. You dont need breaking through the roof deck if it has been compromized by water, too.
