TV antenna

I own a 2018 chateau diesel I went out to look at it and the TV antenna is missing.WTF it is stored inside and only has 40000 miles on it. I am sick of taking it back to get it fixed. Any ideas?

I hate to ask this...

But are you sure you retracted it, and had it safely stowed for transport, after your last trip?

40000 miles on a 2018? And the TV antenna is now missing? I assume it was there for the previous 40000 miles of use? Not sure why you would be sick of taking back to get a TV antenna installed that was either stolen or knocked off the roof.

Sounds like the "midnight shopper" has paid you a visit. Make sure you patch up any holes there first...before you leave it outside anywhere. You would have known (I would hope) that you hit something, knocking it off. I'm sure you meant 4000 miles...right? Your insurance may cover a mobile repair service...?

Another question: Are your sure that it was on your RV; when you placed it into storage?

Unfortunately: this is an item that you almost never notice... until it doesn't work!

I'm sorry 4000 miles it doesn't retract just rotates the RV is stored at our house in a pole building with a concrete floor. I went up on a ladder and I can't even see the coax so bummed

Somebody decided that they needed it more than you do...
Those things don't stick up too awful high: I wonder how they even saw it??
