Read the fine print in your extended warranty, some require that the coach be inspected at certain intervals by "qualified persons/technicians" otherwise the warranty is void.
I agree the roof being the main source of water leaks which is the biggest killer of RVs. The roof should be inspected, cleaned & caulking renewed/refreshed if necessary at minimum twice a year, more is better.
As RVs go there will never be an end to some sort of maintenance or repairs as long as you own it, it's a 7.0 earthquake going 60-65 mph every time you hit the road.
You're best plan is to learn, if not a bit if a handyman, to do all the maintenance you're physically able or mechanically inclined enough to do, otherwise your coach will sitting more at the dealership than at your favorite campsite.
