Ok, I have a strange leak that we can't quite figure out. We have a 2019 Durango 2500 384FLT. There is a small cupboard behind the toilet that has an open space at the bottom. We set a small waste basket and the toilet chemicals in that space. There is also a small window right above the cupboard. It had rained quite hard one night and we had water in a puddle on top of the cupboard and some in the space under the cupboard that had leaked out onto the bathroom floor. No indication of the ceiling being wet or any water running down the wall. The dealer checked it out and caulked around the window then tested it with a power washer and found no water on the inside. We thought problem solved. This past weekend we had a short, hard rain and the puddle on the top of the cupboard was back plus the paper towels we placed underneath were also wet. Last night it rained all night and my husband went out to take a picture of the water to show the dealer and everything was dry! It has become quite a mystery. Any ideas?

pandp Water as I am sure you already know can travel along rafters in a house an the same with a trailer, have you checked around the bathroom vent or sky light over the shower, a small hole missed by caulking could be where the water is coming from on either of these items ... Even the vent for the toilet could have caulking missed around such, I'd check everything close over the bathroom to make sure that caulking is all around everything even close ... Just my three cents Safe Travels Chuck

Thank you. I hadn't thought of that. I will send Hubby up onto the roof to check things out.

Do you have vent covers? I had a mystery leak, water on the floor in front of the toilet. Checked around it, nothing, vent was partially open and rain had come in.

We have maxxair vents that close in the rain. I had that happen in a previous camper though
