Hello Charles,
We are very sorry to hear about this! Please know that fabric life is affected by the application, location, and the physical elements the shelter is exposed to. All our shelters include a minimum one-year warranty, and if you cover tears within that period, we suggest filing a claim and having that reviewed and possibly replaced by the corresponding department. We also offer many replacements covers options, including heavier materials that may have longer warranties and life expectancies which might better suit your needs. If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to call us at 1-800-932-9344.
Thank you
