Leak from a.c. return vent/ fridge temp high

I have a 2017 high country 370brb I purchased in March and moved into full time May 26. Every time it rained water drips from the return vent. Taken it in to service twice and this morning after rain last night the leak is worse. Anybody having this problem or have answers? Also my domedic fridge temp has been running in the high40s to high 50s. They changed the venting. Didn't work. Monday they put a new coil in it and last night it was 34, but this morning it is 51. Help :

If you have a Dometic Blizzard. Read through this thread, #8 from Bowles. Also ther is a service bulletin attached to one of the posts. Search for Blizzard.

Most likely cause of leakage described above, poorly designed cover by dometic (caulk easy fix)(model specific) or bad fit at the roof gasket (again normally an easy fix). Re frig, you indicated they replaced the coil, (I assume you mean cooling element) and reworked the venting. Make sure the outside exhaust fans at the top outside vent are kicking in (should be able to hear) and that the fiver is level. I run a 4inch AC fan I installed at the lower vent, pointed up, to help push the heat out. If your dealer worked twice on the AC and could not stop the leak, and reworked the venting and replaced the cooling element and none of the fixes worked, maybe time to find a different repair technician.
