Vinyl Floor Repair

We just purchased a new FC 27FB. We did a thorough inspection before signing the papers, but when we got her home and cleaned the floors we found two tears in the vinyl floor in the kitchen area. Any idea how to repair these? Would have love to have found these before taking possession!

The floor is very soft and does not look like it will hold up very long. It looks like replacing a floor is quite an ordeal as the original floor is under all the cabinets.

I put a rug over mine to see if I could live with it. If not then going thru warranty repair is going to be a pita. Maybe go to a local linoleum store and ask them?

Entire interior needs to be removed, vinyl is one continuous sheet. Assuming Airstream will warranty it even though it was damage discovered after delivery, I would make this a Jackson Center repair. Then hope that the process of taking apart the interior and putting it all back together again doesn't result in other damage, fit/finish issues, etc.

Sorry you experienced this.
