While we are delighted with our 36FB... We do have one troublesome issue:
When driving thru heavy rain, it appears that water on the road is being picked-up by the tires and whipped up into/onto interior carpeting. Most evident on the long strip of carpet that is exposed after the slide(s) are out... specifically the area by the dining table (directly above the 'curb-side' tires). No sign of any water on the hard surface flooring over the on the opposite side, under the stove, over the 'driver-side' tires. Anybody else experiencing anything similar???

YES! On the way home from the rally we drove through a pretty good rain storm and we ended up with a lot of water under out table. My trailer is going into the shop to have the entire front wall of the curb side slide replace because of water damage. I notices that the rear of the slide closes tighter than the front edge of the slide and I wonder if that's where the water came in at. Look for bubbling of the paint on the front wall of the slide. If you have this, it means water damage has taken place. The factory is standing behind it and has already made plans to fix mine

Coming home from having service done in the rain and noticed the dark stain on the carpet by the table. Is anyone else having rain water come in under the bedroom slide over the vinyl in hallway of their 36RE or 36RL? Service attempted to fix the issue, but somehow made it worse than ever. We spent all day Sunday wringing out towels from soaking up rainwater.
