I have discovered my skylight in our 2021 337RLS has cracks from the flanges up to the top of the sides. It has occurred on both sides of the skylight. I haven't run into any objects when driving and the top of the skylight is without cracks or damages. It appears that the skylight has cracked as a result of possibly being over tightened when installed or possibly inability of the thin material withstanding Colorado temperatures and snow. I have had to remove the inside lens in the shower to allow for water to void out from the framing in order for all to dry out. Fortunately I caught this in time to not have what appears would have become a major issue of water penetration into the attic.
After searching I plan to buy a Lexan skylight. Please steer me different if anyone believes there is a better choice. I am 1 month past warranty but wrestle with having our GD dealer engage in the repair. I am very displeased with the quality of the OEM skylight. It is very thin and brittle. Additionally, the warranty work I did have done, very minor issues, took more than 3 months. We now are in the beginning of our travel plans for the season and don't want to be without our rig.
Once the snow melts off the top of our rig (yes snow May 11th) I will return to the roof and make a final measurement before ordering the Lexan skylight. Grand Design shows this as part # 540141 14x30 but I want to be exact on the measurements. My wife and I are going back and forth on whether to go with a White skylight or Smoke. If you have an opinion, please share.
