    Unhappy 260RB(2022) leaking #1 gray tank when 1/3 full.

    First trip out with the new camper and found the #1 gray tank (shower and sink) leaking once it it reaches approximately 1/3 full. I know its the tank because I can add water to the rear sink using a pail and then watched is start dripping from the low point of the camper bottom. I removed the bolts attaching the bottom plastic sheeting to the frame and can see it drip but not enough to tell where exactly it's coming from on the tank. I contacted service at GD and they filed a clam and was told to find a dealer for repair. Any one have any ideas as to a possible solution? We are on the first week of travel out west from Michigan and have another 4 weeks to go before retuning home. In the photos you can see the line i drew as to where the tank is dipping at. Used some duct tape to seal up where I pulled it down to inspect. Thanks in advance. The Bruski's

    Without fully dropping the coroplast you won't ffind where it's coming from. If you're on the road a small drain hole strategically placed will help it leak out without pooling. If youre in a campground maybe a utility tub or pail under to collect so no one passing by freaks out over it. Then you can dump it down the sewer if you have hook ups

    I would speak with GD Customer Service again and get them to authorize a mobile tech. You will have to pay the (usually) $75 service call charge, but GD should reimburse you for the work. I have had good results finding mobile service techs using this web site:

    We have used mobile techs on several occasions with GD reimbursing for warranty work - and it beats waiting weeks to months for a dealership to get you in.

    Thanks for the response. It's the answers I expected but was hoping there might be a, "Shell answer man" out there that had a crazy idea. As to a small drain hole in the coroplast, there appears to be one as that's where I noticed the drip.
