So we bought a hybrid last year (Jayco 17C EX-PORT) and absolutely love it. Best of both worlds. Used it over 40 nights last year in Michigan.
At the end of the year, we notice one of the (vinyl? canvas? Maybe someone can clear this up... In the meantime I'll call it "fabric") bed ends had a bit of a hole over the support arm. Took it to the dealer, they replaced the entire panel under warranty.
But now, this spring, we noticed the other end has pinholes in the fabric running the length of the support arm. It appears that the arms are rubbing on the fabric and wearing it out very prematurely. I have no problem asking the dealer to replace the other panel at the end of this year, but the warrantly will be over by next spring, so I need to figure out a long term solution.
Other than patching and patching as each hole becomes a problem, has anyone seen or heard of an idea or product that will either prevent the wear or create a sort of wearing surface that is easily replaced without harming the fabric? :-\
Thank you!
