Issue with faucets in 2013 Catalina Deluxe 25RKS

We just took our first trip for the Spring and discovered we have a leaking kitchen faucet and no running water at all in the bathroom sink faucet or toilet...however, the shower does work.

We ended up having to turn off the city water connection because the kitchen faucet continued to leak around the handle where it connects to the base, even in a closed state. The trailer is just a year old last month and may have been used 8-10 times last year.

Totally baffling to us as everything worked perfectly when we winterized it in November. It stays parked under a 3-sided metal awning and is very well protected.

Any ideas???

Did you winterized last fall? The leaky faucet could be as simple as a loose connection under the sink.

I had the same thing in my kitchen faucet. I blew he lines out and then did anti freeze. I have had a boat for thirty years and felt confident in the winterization.

Forest River replaced the faucet under warranty.

If you have the (F/R 2nd Year Warr) let the dealer fix it. If you are going to repair or replace,buy a (Good home type metal faucet) rid yourself of the Plastic R/V one. Youroo!!You will have to do a (CSI Op) on the B/Room issues.
