  Can you send a photo?  I've had latch issues, but I'm not sure I understand the area you are talking about.

  Hello again! do you have a rain hood over your roof vent? It's essential equipment here on the west coast!
  I had my RV dealer install it and it works so well! No leaks - even in torrential rain!
  I also replaced my fan motor because it had been exposed to weather and developed a squeak/was not spinning freely. But if your existing fan cover is leaking when closed, you might want to replace the entire unit (fan and cover) 
  Fan Motor: this was an exact replacement for the existing fan (motor only):

  Fan Hood: There are few different models of the fan hood, but this one fit my 2014 T@B:

  Yes, We have a cover but maybe you're right that it needs to be replaced. Thanks for the links! Super helpful

  Have you checked the caulking around the fan?
