The bubble may (or may not) become a real problem. The roof of an RV acts like the wing of an airplane. The air moving over the roof when travelling causes a "lift" which is greater with increased speed. In our case, the bubble resulted in a complete shredding of the front 10 feet of the membrane while we were travelling 60 MPH against a 35-40 MPH headwind. We were under warranty, and the entire roof membrane was replaced. My suggestion would be to be sure that your dealer (AND MONTANA) be informed and that you attempt to get assurance in writing that in the event of a problem after the warranty expires the warranty would still cover it. My dealer said the membrane replacement job would have cost about $5000 had we been charged.

The bubble you have seems quite small in comparison to some I have seen while meeting other RV's where there seems to be a big bubble rising over the entire front section of the unit.
