First trip out this weekend expected to find minor issues, !. Water pump would not shut off was spitting air, figured that it had a leak on the suction side of the pump, removed an access panel found that the leak had been discovered during the inspection process and was not fixed. The crimped clamp had been replaced with a hose clamp and the leak was not repaired took me about 10 minutes to repair had a plastic bump on inside of the water manifold scraped it off and pump now works fine. The problem is where did the water go that leaked at a terrible rate as I was filling the holding tank? Will I have mold issues later and or destruction to the insulation due to Forest Rivers negligence? #2 Hot water heater will not work on electric most likely the switch was turned on without water at a show or on dealers lot..The breaker should have been turned off as I do as a habit after every trip. Should be covered by warranty. The thermostat in the living area will not operate the heater. There was a serious leak under bathroom sink the sink drain pipe is 1 1/4' the P trap is 1 1/2" the compression washer was 1 1/2" should have been a 11/2" to 11/4" reducing washer which I purchased at ace hardware for $1.49 the issue is that we had a 10x12 inch plastic tote under the sink containing shampoos soaps and a hair dryer since the tote overflowed ran under the sink cabinet to the under belly ,the hair dryer was destroyed. I am really upset especially with the half a-- repair that was done on the pump, did I make the right decision?????
