We have a 2004 model 2955RL and our first trip out we had leaks around the bedroom slide, both front and rear sides. The dealer (Funtime RV, Celburne, TX ) did something minor, ran a leak test and said its OK.Thats 1. Later that month we still had a problem, dealer again made minor repair by removing the 90degree water drain at the bottom of the slide saying it was just a fault Montana had built in. The leak was enough to cause them to replace the facia boards around the bed. another leak test, Ok. Thats 2. Early in June we were wet again, tech at dealer wanted to know why I took the 90degree drains off the slide unit??????, they ordered new parts. Thats 3. Problem still exists a few days later, again the 90degree drains were replaced, seals tested and pronounced OK. Thats 4. Next rain, guess what. Tech send to my home and declared the 90degree drains were short and installed new ones. Thats 5. Trailer back in shop Aug 2nd for leak. New drains installed as well as a new problem was discovered at the top of the slide, something about the black seals not overlaping, repair done and again tested, Results are still pending. Thats 6. I sent copies all the first five repair order sheets to Keystone back in early July but they are all deaf and mute in Goshen,Indiana. I think I have good reason to declare this one a LEMON but I'm sure Keystone will see it differently. I am really SICK of the name Montana to the point that I don't think I will even travel to the state, HAHAHAHa. I'll be looking for another brand before long I can assure you. Fed up in Texas.
