I had the same issue a few years ago. Replace all your inlet fittings with ones that have a brass insert; the all plastic ones are junk. I also have quick connect fittings so I do not have to repeatedly screw a hose off/on.

Thanks to all that answered to this post you were more helpful than you will ever know.
What I ended up doing for the moment as over 2 hrs to any dealer .I swapped the freeze guard fitting after washing it well and the city water inlet because check valve was still intact.worked like a charm.when we return home I plan on replacing all the fitting with the boss one as suggested
