I have a new Eriba Troll and water is leaking through the canvas in the roof. I have had Eriba caravans for 30 years but never had this problem. I am getting a warranty from Hymer at the moment. Any comments would but appreciated

hi, when we used to have Eriba's [23 + years] we used to spray the canvas every year with tent waterproofing this stopped the problem. but do wait for the dealer and warranty have had their say etc Good Luck

It may just be condensation on the aluminium surround just below the canvas. This is a particular problem when the nights are cooler and there's nothing much you can do about it, although some people do close the roof.
