The roof on the vehicle started to peel off the roof. It is like a thick fabric cover that began to tear off the top. We had to stop and tape it with gorilla tape. I belong to a terry classic group on facebook after posting what happened, I learned that this has happened to over 100 units that heartland s aware of the issue. I purchased the vehicle on 04/30/2019 took possession on may 04, 2019. The rv has been at the dealers since june 4th. Heartland is not responding to the request for warranty authorization to put a new roof on.
