I had the aluminum sheeting on the front at the top of my 20015 Hawk replaced under warranty 3 years ago. They said it had been caused by steel staples under the aluminum. I’m guessing they missed one as I have 1 spot by one of the lights that has done the same thing. Does anyone know how I can fix this and aesthetically bring it back to the life?
Thank you,
Gary

My 2015 has been doing the same. When I contacted FWC and sent pics probably 5 years ago, I was ignored.

I had this problem with my 2015. The factory replaced the skin on the overhang under warranty in 2019. This is a known issue. I would keep contacting them and hopefully they will do right by you.

If I could just get the pre-painted aluminum sheet, I’d fix it myself. They are in California and I am in Virginia.
