Improper installation of slide out seals on fleetwood excursion motor home. Warranty has since expired, but manufacturer refuses to pay for repair. Stated that it was my fault for not inspecting mounting screws, even though they cannot be seen from a normal viewpoint. Also claims it was neglect of care, yet I treat and lube slideout seals 3-4 times yearly. Improper installation has resulted in leaks/water damage to interior. Would like manufacturer to pay for seals and labor for replacing seals, I will pay for water damage repair. *Tr
