Ripple in Fiberglass on fron't of Trailer

I have a 19ft 2013 Shadow Cruiser.The fiber glass in the front of the trailer has a ripple in it.Took it back to the dealer and the panel was replaced,now that panel has a ripple.Is this normal for a fiberglass trailer.

  • My buddy's did this last year. Then over the winter it went away and all this year it was fine. Supposedly it is a floating type of wall and the covering will do this on occasion, at least that is what he was told. I can somewhat belive it. He has no leaks so we don't believe it's from that. Since you seen others doing the same thing and some were brand new i tend to believe it could be normal.
  • Mine did this years ago and then it just split (literally split)... I was told it was (water) roof leaking running down the front side of the camper. The pressure of the swelling materials underneath just split the fiberboard right up the middle.
  • Take it back to the dealer and if that does not work find a rep from the manfacturer to get invovled. You don't want to keep it like that or I see lots more problems down the road.
  • The front panel was replaced and the same thing happened.Looked on the dealer lot and seen a few doing this from different manufacturer's.Thanks for getting my photo on RV net.


  • Looks like a bad case of delam to me. Not normal and I would not be happy with it.
  • I give up, tried to post your image with no luck. Do you have your "privacy" settings in Photobucket set to "public"?
