Default When you see damage, it's too late.

Sad to tell you that you have been taken advantage of if you bought this from a dealer. Same with from an individual who didn't disclose the damage, but sometimes with a dealer you can force repairs if you make enough noise. If you have no recourse in either of those options, you'll have to tear out the damaged ceiling wood and replace it. As you do that, you'll find where the water damage really goes, which is usually across the ceiling and down a wall, probably causing unseen rot and mold inside the walls where the water flowed from the leak. If you're handy enough with woodwork, you could repair it yourself. Wear a mask against the mold. There's numerous youtube vids about repairing RV's, just search around and sooner or later you'll find someone repairing similar damage. After the damage has been repaired, an excellent product to keep that from happening again is made by 'Eternabond', a material that comes as a duct tape like product or a caulk like material depending on the area you're sealing up.http://www.eternabond.com/default.asp
