This is a continuation of the water leaks posted earlier...
My "New" RP 180 has been in the shop for 10 days. While enjoying Bull Shoals State Park, I began to notice water on the floor in the kitchen and bath. I put down towels and investigated. I noticed the outdoor shower was leaking and the tapered thread seemed to be off. (Don't they water-test these things as part of the prep?)  I re-leveled the unit to run "out" if that was the problem. The leaking continued and I packed up and took my new Pod back to Cheyenne Camping. It is currently there and the entire slideout and lower cabinetry has been replaced. There were 9 things on my list that need repaired or replaced....More to follow

The dealer should have checked all that stuff before you took possession.

I was pretty sure that's how it was supposed to happen.....lots of little things (haha) missed.....Including the table that wasn't secured and banged against the cabinets.......or the battery box strap that flew off on the interstate.....Lovely....Angry

Sounds like your dealer gets an "F" for prepping your pod.  On the other hand, ours got an "A" as we never experienced any problems when we picked ours up in Escanaba, MI back in March 2011.

Wow, 10 days, hopefully they are about finished and you can get back to 'podding' around.
