Black tank replacement after macerator use?

I have a 2013 Jay Flight TT. Today while using a brand new macerator pump to empty the tanks for the first time, the black tank seems to have sprung a leak. I never put TP or anything in the toilet and always use proper chemicals to treat the tank so I'm not sure what would have caused the macerator to potentially cause a backup or jam during the process to cause the seals to fail. But here we are.
Any idea what I'm looking at in regards to $$ for possible repair or replacement? Anyone experienced this issue?
Thanks

Any pricing for repairs depends on who is doing it. You or a them?
If you are going to have it repaired, call Apache and ask them who can do it.
They are on Dunn Rd.

Going to have to take it somewhere to find where the leak is from exactly. If it's a cracked tank that's going to cost different than a loose connection on a fitting.

Thanks for your replies. I actually bought my TT at Apache! Unfortunately, I am actually living in it "moochdocking" with family during new home construction in SC. I think I will reach out to mobile tech I used earlier this fall for a different issue. Yeah - Not a repair I intend to take on.

Then you should be in their service group. I forget what it’s called. But you get preferred service. If you call them, they can look up someone near you maybe.
