Hi
I'm curious if other launch owners have had this problem with their bunkends. Mine have developed cracks in the plastic where the canvas attaches to the camper. I found the cracks less than a month after my warranty expired. So Starcraft will not cover them. I believe this is a design flaw or careless torquing of the screws by the factory.
You'll need to plead your case to Starcraft. Starcraft uses Lippert Securelock doors, and what you are referring to is called J lock. It has been known to crack/split. Especially if the tenting was installed too tight. Its not uncommon at all.
The repair is either new complete tents, or to have someone capable of sewing the heavy material / plastic together replace the J lock. The J lock is hard to find. If you bought it new did you save the tags that should of been hanging on the tents or have been in the document package? That might lead you to help from the tent supplier. Every hybrid manufacturer except for Forest River's Rockwood/Flagstaff and Palomino brands uses the Lippert Doors, but they all don't use the same tent vendors.
