Doesn't this unit have the ABS roof? I hope it isn't the ABS roof sag. Someone more knowledgeable than me on this subject will soon answer.

You may have checked this already but sometimes if the tenting doesn't fold just right as you push it in, this could happen. It happens to us sometimes when in a rush.

Well I was hoping that wasn
I think there is an official check that involves stretching a string from one end to the other (or crner to corner) but I could not find the technique.
If it's only on the back, and the roof still bows up, the problem may just be a gasket issue.

There is an official means of measuring the dimension tolerances for the roof to determine whether or not it is suffering from the dreaded ABS roof sag. I made many calls to different dealerships as well a few calls to the Fleetwood factory in PA and got those tolerances.
Went down to the dealer where I bought the PUP and we spent some considerable time evaluating the gasket issue as well as inspecting the roof. We determined that the issue was related to the gasket and the rear body panel on the RV. The roof in fact looks in perfect shape, I am confident that it is NOT suffering from the sag issue.
Austin thanks for your input, you scared the hell outa me however it prompted me to do some quick yet extensive research and learn quite a bit about the ABS issue. I am very glad that now I can rest easy knowing it
