Roof wrinkle?

For the first time I did a visual inspection on my new 22fb. I noticed a wrinkle in the rubber material towards the front, the wrinkle kinda travels from side to side (as opposed to front to back). It's only about 3/4" tall and runs maybe a couple of feet. Is this normal or should I run this TT back to the dealer?
Thanks!

There's no harm in bringing it back to the dealer but don't be surprised if they say it's acceptable. Maybe you could take a picture of it and send it vs. making the trip. Might save you time and gas money.

I just replaced the vent fan (Removed the chincy original and put in a Fantastic) and noticed the rubber roof is not "glued" to the top. Upon closer look there are several places where the rubber is raised slightly and you can press it down. Not a big deal though. I hope this helps.

I just purchased a new 2012 32TSBH Jay Flight and I asked that very question. I was told it was normal.

Great input JOF members. I really appreciate the advice. I think I'll attempt to rub it out this evening when it cools off.

I was told it was normal but they fixed it anyways for us, I said the water could channel into the skylight and cause a leak so it got fixed.

I'm picking up my 2012 29RLDS Thursday, I'll check that out. I was told that they have a 12 year warranty on the roof.

Just for information. It is my understanding that the "roof warranty" is only the rubber itself. The sealing of the roof is NOT warranted. ie: Warranty does not cover leaks and/or sealant failure. Jayco considers this a "maintenance item".
