Opinion regarding wrinkled rubber roof

What are you opinions concerning wrinkles in the roof membrane? When we got this TT I noticed slight wrinkling across the seams for the roof panels but now there are wrinkles on the sides of the roof as well as across the seams which appear to have gotten worse. Additionly, there are wrinkles around some of the vents, etc. The wrinkles are raised up off the roof panelling. Does this sound like a warranty problem?

Thanks for any input.

Some wrinkles are normal depending upon the outside temperature. I had the same question when we bought our unit back in 2000 and was reassured that it was okay.

We also have wrinkles along the seam in the front of our 06 3400. At the rally a Service center rep looked at it and and said "that's .. normal (name recorded)..maybe so..In any case we took many pictures..sent them into Customer service and received confirmation that they received the pictures and yes that was normal.."if it did not get any worse. We have a appointment at the service center April 16th to correct other issues..we will compare pictures with the roof at that time to see if they ..got any worse...in the meantime I have no fears as Keystone says the wrinkles are normal.

Some wrinkles are normal along with some small bubbles here and their.But in your post you say they are getting worse.Thats not a good thing.The adhesive is letting go and I would bring it back and let your dealer see for themselves.

Loosening has a lot to do with the sun and temperature. If you cecked it first on a cool &/or cloudy day and than checked it on a hot &/or sunny day expansion should be expected. Like the others have said some looseness is considered normal but just to be on the safe side have it checked by your dealer if for no more reason than to have it on record.
