Well we just returned from our first big trip to Nashville, and noticed several things that needed to be repaired. So we took it to the ExploreUSA dealer where we purchased the rig. We discovered that the water heater was leaking a bit and that it was pulling away from the trailer wall... About a 1/4 inch.
The dealer said it is not covered under the extended warranty and that it was going to take 4 hours of work at a cost of about $435 to fix - $109 per hour! First shock: just learened that an RV mechanic makes $40 per hour more than a certified Ford Diesal mechanic...
Anyway, has anyone else had this problem, any suggestions how I can fix it myself. I am going to ask Heartland to cover it, since it really is something that should be considered faulty installation... But just in case, not sure I want to spend $400 bucks for this issue...
