Another Delamination Issue

I had noticed some small cracking in the front radius of my '11 Cougar a few years ago, but was not too worried. In September I invested in a ADCO cover to help "protect" it.

I removed the cover today and found this! All of the research I have done indicate it caused by condensation gathering under the cover overnight, then during the day the sun creates a sauna like effect on the front radius (we have seen 40 degree temp changes between night/day lately).

I talked to the repair shop who insist water got behind the fiberglass via an unsecure seal between the radius and the roof, and the cover merely enhanced the issue. I find this hard to believe because I had it uncovered all summer and this issue developed after the cover was installed.

I have also discovered other threads that talk about a recall issued last year by Keystone because of this same issue, and that the roof should be covered by warranty for 10-12 years.

Thoughts???
