Just a few months after we bought our 3585 (brand new), the largest awning started disintegrating. First it was just little rips of varying lengths along the edge by the door, but after getting on a ladder to take a closer look, I discovered random pinholes to toothpick-sized holes scattered all over that awning. Several areas on the top also looked frayed, as though something had rubbed hard on those spots. We never, ever parked our rig under a tree or under anything with an overhang, so how the "rubbed" spots got there is a mystery.

I checked the other 2 awnings; one had rips along both edges, however but no holes; the other one was fine--like new.
