5 year old trailers check your Dometic AC shroud.

Mine looked good from the curb, but close look revealed a couple small cracks. When I rested my hand on it, it punched through. The plastic was very brittle, almost no strength.

Just a heads up, the shroud may look a lot better than it really is. This is for the Dometic Penguin air conditioners.

I replaced mine on the CCD last year - 6 years old showed some age and had cracks. Cheap (that's inexpensive not poor quality) at Camping World - I paid $89 for mine.

I also got the replacement from camping world. It is polar white vs. the almond white color of the original. No lettering or logos on it. Looks good (sometimes you don't quite know what you're ordering at camping world).
