Thanks for getting back w/more info. That sounds like either the water lines going into the back of the faucet are loose, or the mixing valve in the faucet itself is cracked (possibly from water inside the faucet freezing). If your trailer is still under warranty, your dealer should be able to replace the faucet for you. If not, it shouldn't be a difficult job to do yourself. First, make sure the water lines/fittings going into the faucet are tight. My Eagle has the rear kitchen, so I can access those lines through the kitchen sink base cabinet. If you can't access yours from inside your trailer, you may be able to remove the entire "box" that contains the outside shower from the outside of the trailer (haven't looked closely at mine). Once you have it out, you can check the waterline fittings for tightness, or replace the mixing valve with one from Camping World. They have them on sale right now (internet only) for $10.99. Hope this helps you out.
