Yes, we have a bunk leak! We own a 2006 17' Roo. Only leaks when towing in heavy rain. There was a SIGNIFICANT amount of water in the storage pocket below the bunk. Two small pieces of clear duct tape on the lower corners (where the hinge is) seem to solve the problem.

Yes, 07 Kodiak 214 leaks small amount into the storage pass through towing in heavy rain. I towel placed in the right spot works for now. Dealer replaced front bunk end, but still leaks. Must be the seal or the hinge, just haven't figured it out yet.

We had the problem when we owned the Trail-lite Bantam (if I knew we would be driving in the rain, I would duct tape around the front opening; that seemed to take care of the problem.) I have not had a problem with the Roos, but have not been in real heavy rain. I guess it is not surprising for that to happen; as put by somebody previously, it's like the front end of the trailer is going through an earthquake and hurricane at the same time.

Yes, front. Dealer replaced all damage and installed replacement single seal EXACTLY like FR instructed them to. It was shorter than my original from the factory - didn't fly in my book. I dealt personally with FR and received replacement primary and a new secondary seal (one of the various revisions of that secondary) and installed myself. Will be changing to the new push-on trim with weatherstrip bulb.

Yes, a few years ago we towed several times in downpours. Found a little bit of water in the right side storage area behind the bench cushions. The bed itself wasn't leaking. It was a small opening on one side of a seam molding, which is about 4 inches below the bed hinge on our trailer. The original caulk dried and shrunk. I sealed it, and no problems since.
