For months now we have had problems with a faint smell of sewage coming and going in our 2017 Jayco Northpoint. When attempting to clear the vent pipe by sending water down from the roof, water was running and splashing out of our cabinet, which covered the vent pipe in the bathroom.
I took part of the cabinet off to see the vent. It looked like the installers had cut into the vent right at the roof line, perforating it and causing it to leak. Not only the water but probably the gas smell too.
I patched it up but we still had water coming out of an unknown location around the vent pipe.
I looked into the vent and noticed I could see light around the perimeter of the protruding pipe. I took off the roof vent and found out that around the pipe was a completely exposed hole in the roof, which is where the water was coming from and also where the gasses from the tank were reentering the RV.
And not only that but this hole has been allowing tons of air conditioned RV air to leave the space. Unbelievable.
I loaded it with dicor and reinstalled. Luckily the trailer is still under warranty and I'm my own repairman. I will get paid for this garbage. I have found countless poor craftsmanship like this in our RV over the years. It's been an endless journey.
