But it was still leaking. We took it back to the dealer in Madison Ohio and they repaired an air-conditioner leak and said all was good. It was raining the day we picked it up and drove home with it again and before we got home it was leaking again. The dealer has now had it again for three weeks and we have lost faith in the Elkmont product.

Could it be that the weep holes at the roof are the culprits?
I am including a picture of each of the weep holes on my Elkmont. It appears that some holes on other Elkmonts mnay have bee drilled with a different trajectory (the angle of entry when a thin rod is inserted into the hole). If it is done from above the roof line it most likely will leak, whereas if the hioles are drilled from below (at an upward angle) they will probably be ok.
Take a good look at your trailers roof the holes are located in the molding juet below the roof at each corner of the trailer.
