I have a 2017 Durango D347BHF. How is the plumbing setup. It appears that the kitchen sink drains into the back black tank that is for the 1/2 bath. It this correct? i just went camping and soap suds came out of the black tank when I was draining. I told my wife this and she said she was afraid of it backing up in sink. I really think the toilet would overflow first since it is much lower to ground. Comments welcome please. I have reviewed the 2017 manual and it just does not help.
I have sent copy of this post to KZ customer support and will post here when issue is addressed.

This doesn't seem to be a rare occurrence, unfortunately. At least one person on here has re-plumbed his rig to handle this issue when the 1/2 bath tank kept filling up quickly. There's actually a poll on that thread, but I can't find it. Maybe one of the others can point you to it.

I also post my question on Rvillage under the K-z owners group. What I did to find out the real truth about what goes where is to drain all our tanks as much as possible 
Then got some food coloring, one at a time poured food coloring into each sink, open each drain one at a time an saw if the color I poured in come out ... Thus I was are sure of were my sinks, shower etc drain into, our back sink an shower off bedroom drain into one Gray tank, the kitchen sink, dish washer drain into another tank an our black water/ sewage of course drains into black water tank ...
Some place here on the form someone else stated their dish water emptied into black water tank but again I wonder about such ... To me that would be a heath issue an unless there was a very, very good valve to stop back flush it would be unsanitary an open the MFG to a law suit if someone got sick from such ...
Now saying all this looking at four models of G384RLT's a found the black an gray water pull handles all in different locations, our had the Black an back gray water tank together an the from gray water tank away from the other two... In another G384RLT the pull handles were all together an in another all pull handles were spaced a short distance apart say three or four inches apart on their own bracket ... So it would not surprise me that the would mix an
