Fresh Water Tank split

[rmann]

We have a 3 year old 3055 Big Horn 5th wheel. Late last summer when dumping the trailer I noticed the underbelly hanging down. Hit it and it was full of water. Lucky it was fresh water.

Took the camper in and had them look. It has a split in the tank. It will cost about $800 to have a new tank put in.

Anyone had this problem or am I just the lucky one.

Ouch! Where did the tank fail, along an edge, across the flat bottom, or is there a seam anywhere to crack? Do you travel with a full tank?...................

I'd like to know where it split too. I got a $40 fix for any tank, except for one with a hole the size of your fist in it.

Ours cracked this year around the center hole on top of the tank. It was replaced under warranty. We always travel with a full tank.
