SOLVED: water dripping behind rear wheel well

I have a Forest River Sunseeker 3170, Bought it last October. it's a 2013.

I have water dripping from behind the wheel well of the driver's side rear wheels. The drip is in the vicinity of my water heater, kitchen sink, bathroom sink/toilet. Went into a dealer to check. Dealer can't find problem. Dealer checked plumbing, can't find any water leaks or damage. But if dealer pulls off wheel well strip, water comes pouring out.

Side note: I did spend the months of October - March in a very rainy part of Washington State. I am wondering if water collected somewhere and is dripping out. I asked dealer if there would be damage to interior walls on this, dealer doesn't think so due to the way these are constructed.

What could be causing this leak? It's not raining where i am now, I haven't been in torrential rain since April 15 or so.

went back to dealer. They found the problem. My city water connection was broken, and RV tech ascertained it had been broken at the factory, so WARRANTY! Got it fixed.
