The next time I had an issue with a vent cover was following the Wells, Nevada trip in 2018 (the one where I had to have two stents put into a coronary artery) when the cover shattered. I called a mobile RV repairer in Lake Havasu and he took care of replacing the vent cover. I was in no shape to do it myself and rains were imminent.
