Call Forest River. That is covered under warranty and they will send you to a repair shop nearby.

If you can I would contact LazyDays RV in Tampa Florida
Lazydays - The RV Authority


They are west of you about 75 miles.

They are the best and work with Forest River a lot.

Well today is the day they are going to get the roof fixed. Hope it won't end up looking like a 10 years old beat up RV after the fix. It is only 6 months old after all. Anybody have any dealing with Orlando RV service before any good?

Bought our windjammer there in October 2014. The technician that did our PDI was great. He really knew his stuff. He took his time and explained everything. They are very busy there. I am sure they have alot of experience and will do I good job. I wish I got the techs name . Good luck

tilap.........

I'm still re-reading you original posting

"The above the driver roof seam corner is coming apart on my 2015 Georgetown 377XL bad."

Thank god you were able to finally attach some photos of what your problem is. My original interpretation of your trouble was that you had a problem with an INTERIOR roof seam problem. On my rig, that means the plastic seam strip that covers where the larger sections of ceiling come together. The seams extend from one side of the rig to the other. I have several of them from front to rear. Just covers the gap.

When I look at your photos, your concern is clearly an EXTERIOR problem.....what I interpret as the black window framing. Your photos are little too close for me to know exactly where, but in the rest of the photos you can see the exterior of a slide and the grass around your rig.

Hope they get you fixed to your satisfaction, and keep us updated.

Kenandterry after reading over my first post I realized how unclear I was. That is what happen when I get emotional I guess.

Sorry wrong botton, just got back from Orlando RV they were able to fix it in half an hour. The screw holding it actually broke of and one was never put in by FR they just painted over a hole where the screw was suppose to be. So they added 2 screws and sealed it. Hopefully it will last.
