Leaking Faucets

Two of the faucets (kitchen and bathroom) on our 2013 3582RL are leaking. To be more precise, when the lever is lifted and moved all the way to the side for hot water is when water leaks out.

Is there any way to fix this?

Yes. You have to take off the handle on the bathroom faucet, assume it is a dura model like in my 2013, and then tighten down the nut on top of the faucet. The handle comes off via an hex key and removal of the pressed in red/blue symbol on the front of the handle. If you have to rebuild the faucet, it uses a standard lever ball and rubber seal kit from home hardware stores. Or you could replace it with a new faucet from the same place. I can't remember the kitchen faucet as we dumped it for a moen very soon after buying the trailer.

Save yourself headaches later on and replace them as jcurtis934 stated. Keystone's factory fixtures are garbage but easy to replace with another such as Moen, etc. That's what I did on 3 Montanas and you will be glad you did.

I’ve actually found the Dura faucets to be pretty reliable. I’ve only had to replace a couple parts over the years and have obtained them from this site: http://www.rvfaucet.com/replacement-parts/
