Last february, my heater core leaked on my 33' 1999 winnebago chieftain. Being out of warranty, I had a local, dependable rv dealer fix the problem. In march I headed out to for another trip and after approx 300 miles, the heater core leaked again. After I got back the rv dealer replaced the heater core at no cost to me. The next trip I had as in july, where I only put 361 miles on the repaired heater core before it started to leak again. I would like to know if anyone else has had this happen to them. Please advise. Thanks, pete.
