That is normal. The wrinkles allow the material to expand/contract in different temperatures.

DPilot,
As Greg said it is perfectly normal for there to be some bubbles in the roof material. You may want to have someone follow you a ways down the road and observe the roof for anything other than the small bubbles. A few folks have had trouble with the roof not being glued down properly and huge bubbles developed. But that is very rare. Depending on where you took possession of your rig it has already been stress tested by simply being driven from the factory to your dealer.

Congratulations and enjoy your new rig. Dennis and Mary Kay

If you think it might be an issue, I would recommend you take it to your dealer for evaluation...wait too long and it could then be an issue you have to deal with.

Had them on both of my rigs, no problem. Just be careful if you are up there walking on it or washing it that you don't "jam" a foot, brush, hose, or anything else into it, as I imagine it could tear more easily than other sections that are flat and smooth.

Well, I can't thank.you.all enough, I feel.better.... Knowing at least it is prob ok...
The dealer said it was.ok, but they also said there was nothing wrong with the chicom tires !!
Btw, I brought the tire subject.up.while at K and was.told.there was nothing wrong with the.Marathon and that their "failure rate is about the best...." !!!
I put in the 614's anyway.... and I am following up on the different issues that I baveearned about here....
Again, thank you all !!! and any more comments abt anything are welcome...!!!
