 After pulling off i-75 in kentucky for a fuel stop the front skylight cover, made of lexan and 2 foot square came off the roof. all screw holes had broken out. had this cover come off on the highway it could have done damage to any following vehicles. on inspection i also found the rear skylight cover was breaking loose from the trailer roof . i consider this a serious safety issue for any driver following an airstream trailer.*ak
