Improper mounting of the Dometic Water Heater by Jayco caused compartment failure. Jayco did not install supports under the 10-gallon water heater tank as required by Dometic (see installation instructions attached). Road bumps and vibrations caused the moment arm of the unsupported tank to tear the sheet metal water heater mounting frame fastened to the RV outer wall thereby causing a safety issue. The water heater compartment failed thereby tilting back behind the wall of the RV. When tilted back, the unit exhaust can enter the living quarters. When tilted back, the LP gas line is exposed to failure; the water line can break and there could be electrical implications. Other RV owners have described the same issue (see Inf from Amazon Review attached). Jayco customer service states they will do nothing unless directed by the NHTSA via a recall. They will not allow me to escalate the issue to Jayco management. I have an extended warranty and comprehensive insurance. Claims were discussed with both companies including photos but they reject this as a claim stating that a compartment failure is not covered even with safety concerns.
