Yikes. Recently bought an '06 2619 from Camping World only to find the unit leaks like a sive. Water is under the interior ceiling aluminum skin in the corner by the door and drips onto the rear, left, corner of the stove.
2nd location for water is the vent directly in front of the AC unit in the ceiling. It apparently originates from the one corner under the clear caulk in place That required a bucket - major leak.
3rd location is in the passenger side forward corner near the reading light under the overhead storage shelf. Given the condition of the reading light fixture, this has been going on for some time, thank you very much previous owner(s).
4th location list night was a few drops in the curtain channel above the base of the forward bed.
5th location was dripping out the top of the large window to the right of the sink.
Last but not least (#6) , water last night was found trickling behind the mounting of the awning on the exterior of the camper siding above the door. One would think that would not be of concern except that this water promptly disappeared behind the top edge of the door, entered the interior and ended up on both the floor and magazine rack.
I recently recaulked much of the upper parts of roof seams and vents/AC with exterior with high grade latex caulk but obviously the effort was for for naught. Love the concept and design of the camper but we are about to drag it back to the dealership in total frustration. We are both deeply disappointed and frustrated.
