Just returned from the dealer. They replaced the original foam seal with a butyl rubber seal and assure me that it should not leak henceforth. Tradewinds RV in Ocala, Fl. Great service.

Just heard from our dealer on our issues. The leaking rear window apparently was caused by a defective seal between the window and the window frame. They removed the window, took it to a glass shop to have rebedded, then reinstalled the window.
 
The delaminated table has been replaced.
 
Since we just returned from a 2K mile trip, they checked the bearings and brakes at my request. Brakes were OK, wheel bearings were repacked. The cost for this to me was $155, including 2 seals for $49.
 
I pick her up tomorrow.
 
Edit: Before I got up to the counter to pay, I wandered around the showroom looking at stuff, and I suspected something might have been amiss with my phone quote when I saw stacks of wheel bearing seals for sale for only a few bucks each. Well, I was right about something being wrong. The figures were completely different from what I was told on the phone. The seals were a total of $4.90, not $49.00. Originally the labor was written up as $150, but the guy who helped us today (who was also our salesman) immediately scratched that out and said that was wrong because we only have a single axle. Labor is $75 per axle. So the total to have the bearings repacked was just a bit over $80, not $155 as I was originally told.
