Default Problems with new 5th wheel

Hello,
My husband and I were very excited when we bought our first big rig a 34' Yellowstone fth wheel. We too bought oursfrom Martinsburgs,Pa and were treated very well, staying over night and even a free dinner. Our problems started with our first trip that was to be a 3 months to Alaska.
I can not mention everyting that has gone wrong as it would take up way to much space.
1. The sky light leaked so bad that our bedroom floor was soaked
2. The cargo area became flooded due to a water hose coming off.
These 2 things happened thefirst day on the road. Took it to Napanne, IN and was told we needed an apt.and they were booked for 3 months. After my husband told them that we would want a new trailer as after 4 months of leaking the trailer would not be fit to live in. We would go to a local lawer and draw up papers. We were then sent to a very nice dealer that took care of the water problems along with a slid out seal that was replaced and they tryed to fix the closet shelf and coat rack but it still fell down.
3. The elec. cord pulled away form the plug and it was fixed in Calgery.
4. Toilet seal went bad as well as the sprayer Both were fixed in Ancroage.
5.A stress crack developed at bedroom slid out,was about 12 inches long.
Has been taken care of.
6. Leveling legs did not work right and one fell apart.
One was replaced and the other still does not work right

I will add contunue this at another time. Needless to say we are not happy with our new trailer.
