Roof leaking
We feel sick. Last August we bought a really nice 2006 Forest River Lexington (28 ft) Class B+ motorhome. It only had 8,000+ miles on it. We took it to Texas for a month this winter, and now have about 11,000 miles on it. Right after we bought it, we had a leak in one of the wardrobes when it was raining. Luckily we were there when it happened, or we would have had some bad damage. I was able to call the dealer (who was in the same town) and someone came down and patched the roof immediately. The roof is fiberglass.
When we were coming home from Texas, I noticed some dripping above my head(passenger side) one morning. It had been a cold night with the furnace running all night, so we though maybe it was condensation.
Our first time out this spring, my husband woke me up on a rainy morning, and said there was water dripping below the TV that is located above the passenger seat. We were looking at the area, and I realized that there was water collecting in the headliners above both driver and passenger seats. Called the dealer again and said we HAD to get it inside. We were glad they were open and could take it down and put it inside right away northern virginia roofing contractors. Luckily we were there again when it happened, because the remainder of the weekend we had about 2-3 inches of rain.! I can't imagine what kind of a worse mess we would have had if we hadn't been there.
We are sick about this. I don't know what will happen as far as repairs, but I am concerned about mildew with the water mess in the headliners. This is such a nice unit, but I told my husband I will be worried every time it rains from now on. I am about ready to trade it off, but we can't really afford much more than we paid for this.
We could certainly use some advice and suggestions!
