Hi, New to this forum, I have an Elddis Odyssey 544 and have recently noticed a crack in the panel on the left bottom corner of seiz privacy window. Elddis have infomed me it caused by some sort of impact/wheel axle damage caused by kerbing/potholes. Has any one else suffered this crack? I personally believe it's a manufacturing fault as Caravans should be able to withstand British roads.

Warrenty claim was rejected, quote for repair was £3000

Would it be a warranty claim unless you have extended it 3 years is all you get,6 years water ingress.

read this before,a standard reply from caravan makers to get them out of the repair.
