Slight leak Leak in leveler

Hi we have a 2021 Montana 3120 . There is a slight leak on one of the levelers . It is better than it was , but it still leaves a film on the pad or foot . Is this something I should be concerned with ? I have an appointment to bring it in 77 miles away and they want to hold onto the unit. The warranty is up in August. Should I keep the appointment?

Check the fittings at the top of the legs. I had one fitting on the distribution block above the LF Jack that was oozing down the hose to the top of the leg, then down the leg & collecting on the foot exactly like yours. It was so slow that I didn’t even notice it until it collected dirt like yours is doing. Just snugged it up & all is good.

Our FL was leaking from under the black top cap off and on to the tune of ~4oz/6mo. A new one from Lippert was >$500 and a local shop could rebuild for ~$200. I just kept adding ATF fluid over the years. Never an issue.

If it is still under warranty fix it as it will get worse.

As a point of fact, our actually improved with time. I was down to about 2 oz of ATF every 6 months.
