We had our lightbar resealed after Camping World brought it to my attention, that it looked like the seal had failed. Ours was delivered with it installed from the factory. After a year of ownership the seal was starting to fail. I contacted the factory and they said that even if it was after the one year warranty, they would authorize a warranty reinstallation, but it had to be at our original dealer. I took it to my delivering dealer and told them to contact the factory for a warranty install. They did and they did a better than factory reinstall. However, they wanted an additional $100 above what the factory would be paying them. I said under no circumstances was I going to pay an additional dime. They gave me my keys and I left. Some dealers just are out for any additional income they can get from the unsuspecting public. Goose, contact the factory and I am sure they will cover it. Safe Travels.

Seeing how you have an '09 POD the rear light bar was added years later in a recall. You might try to find out what dealer did the recall work and contact them as well to correct the problem. Goose

I was washing the pod and noticed that the factory installed light bar at the top rear is loose. I'm not worried about it falling off-it has 6 screws as well as the adhesive.

 I seem to remember that someone else had a similar problem.  I searched, but didn't find the post.
anyway, who had the other light bar issue? what happened?

  I will call Forest River on Monday to find out their suggestions.

thanks
