Plywood on roof coming up

This looks like it will be a nightmare. It’s under warranty it who knows what kind of repair they will do. You can see it lifting up over the door.

Take it in and see what they say. That surprises me, as Jayco says they screw down the roof decking. I don't see anyway to fix this without pulling the rubber membrane and screwing the decking back down. I would prefer this type of repair done at the manufacturer though. Not sure where you are, but we are nearing the end of the camping season in the northern US... maybe the timing will work out for you to have it sent back.

Good luck, keep us updated please!

Our 2014 Octane did that where the seam was. It was not covered since it was 2 1/2 years old. It was just at the edges about 6 " in from the sides, both sides. Removed gutter, peeled back roof about 2', Cut about 1/4 " plywood from seam, screwed deck down (had screws, they pulled through the plywood), used spray adhesive on roof, reinstalled gutter with new butyl caulk tape, and have over 25k miles since repair without any move problems. No one can tell it was ever worked on. This was the repair method our dealer said they would do, I didn't want to wait so I did it in about 3 hours on a nice day.

I think if you go back and read their verbiage, they say it's screwed down at the cross seams, and not along the edge.
