decals peeling on almost new 2012 roo

We just went to pick up my son trailer that was in storage for the winter. The trailer is a 2012 roo 17. Upon arrival for pick up we noticed that the decals are peeling badly on one side of the trailer. How can decal last for so short time. I have myself a 2011 minilite and I have no problems with my decals but upon checking the 2 trailers it seems to me that his decals on the roo are thinner than mine. Including a few pictures. We will call the dealer for a claim on the warranty.

Was it just the one side? Did that side get all of the sun?

this was on the east side. The strange thing is that there is nothing on the other side that was damaged. It lools like the decals have shrunk. The front of the trailer was facing south, the rear was facing north. The damaged side was on the east.

All these posts about peeling decals have me thinking about buying a storage cover. Sounds like sun damage is the culprit in most cases. In the summer my storage area at my house is relativley shaded but not so in the winter.

I think it is just poor quality on the decals. I lost mine the first time I washed it.

Looking at the pictures again, those decals sure do look terribly thin.
I wonder if FR would give a straight answer about this?
