Gulf Stream Owners RV Forum - View Single Post - 5291 BT Cruiser Leaking at front side of both slides?

Curraj1 · 03-29-2010, 12:23 PM

I purchased a Model 5291 in Apr.2008 and the slide for the dining and living area both leaked in the front also.. The living area when the slide is open and the dining area opened or closed. It has been in 3 different shops a total of 8 times since new, including the dealer I bought it from ( Martinsburgh RV, in Pa ). I took a 2 week trip to Fla. recently and found out that both sliders still leak when open.
This unit has seen the inside of shops more than campgrounds. After using the rv for the first time in 2009 I found that the unit continued to leak and after many voice mail and e-mail messages was informed the warranty was expired and Gulfstream would not be responsible for any further work. I stopped getting any responses from any of three GS managers after informing them of my dis-satifaction with the product. My next action will be to contact an Attorney in Indiana. Has anyone had any luck with this type of issue?
