Follow up on my initial posting
Yesterday we were able to pick our Hummingbird up. I can't complain about the quality of the work done by the dealership, Fretz RV in Souderton, PA. It is excellent and they picked up a few thing I hadn't reported.
As has been discussed many times on these pages there is more demand for work at dealerships than workers which causes time delays. Also adding to the problem is almost being forced to go back to the selling dealer for warranty. I also learned from this that Jayco has slowed the process since Thor bought them. According to the service department they had to go over our list and re-document, with photos, everything . Then send the entire package to Jayco for approval. Until the job was approved they couldn't do any work or even order parts. Yes I have communicated directly with Jayco and it helped (as with any large operation you need to go up a couple layers and find a person who can say yes).
Just a side note on the original problem and as has been suggested by members here, the edge part of the countertop needs to be glued in. It also has a concave face so simple expansion and contraction will pull it out. If that had been my only complaint, I would have simply done that and if it fails again on the edge will do so probably with West 6-10. What caused me to take it back was swelling along the back and one side from actual intrusion. The front trim never showed any water problem.
