Fresh water tank failure

**holaCG** · 07-27-2019, 08:32 AM

I have a 2015 Momentum 376TH. I have only moved my trailer twice. First time 200 miles and second 30 miles. I was living in it for work and about a year ago it was moved to my house. I noticed water leaking from under the trailer and a bulge in the panel under the trailer. i as took the underbody skirt off water came pouring out and now that I have the skirting off it looks like the fresh water tank has slipped off the front support and buckled around the middle support. I assume this isn’t normal and was wondering if anyone else has had this happen. Replacing the freshwater tank does not look like fun. Any suggestions?

I've heard of tanks falling out on a few occasions but not buckling around the support like that. I believe now they support the tanks better than they did in our "vintage" GD trailers. Having the cross brace it's a concern (to say the least) to see it buckle like that. With the large fresh tank the Momentums have there should have been 2 supports.

I know it's a 2015 but I'd reach out to GD , at the least they can adise you but they have done off the wall fixes for people that are out of warranty in the past.

Yes, the bracing seems pretty inadequate for that much weight and just a plastic tank...

My plan is to call them Monday. I can just hope for the best!!
