Problems on 2nd trip out
Hi all! We picked up our 298RLS on the 21st of May and took a two day trip then another 3 day trip on Memorial Day weekend. Had a great time!
However...we left the trailer at the dealer on the way home to fix some problems. We were caught is some pretty bad rain and discovered two leaks, both in the LR slide. One on the front window and the other from a light fixture (no idea where its coming from). More of a weep than a leak but its dripping onto to only outlet in the slide!
Another problem is the dump valves. We had been in a park with no septic hookup and had about 3 days worth of black and grey waste. We stopped at the dump station leaving the park and when I took the cap off was greeted with about 4 gallons of black waste. Fortunately I always put a bucket under the cap before I take it off just in case. This is a new trailer so the cap had never been off and the valves were all closed. Well, they have to fix that too!
Other, smaller problems on the list are; 1) sticking entry door, 2) screen door won't latch and 3) the kitchen faucet leaks ever so slightly.
All in all we are very pleased with the look and feel of this unit and hopefully the dealer will be able to quickly take care of these issues. Will keep everyone posted as to what is found.
Thanks and happy camping!!
