[pct-l] Holes in our tent!

[Alphabetsoup]

If you bought the tent new (not scratch and dent), it should have warranty.
I would contact them and arrange for an exchange. I have the Lunar Solo, I
have used it a few times in wet windy conditions and have no problems to
report. They respond very quickly to E-mail inquiries.
