I have a 2010 Tuscany. The swing out compartment doors leak and I can find no way to adjust them. The lift up doors are fine. Any suggestions?

I have the same problem with those swingouts on my 08 Essence. As far as I can tell, there is no adjustment. If you do find a method, please let me know. Right now everytime I wash the coach I have to contend with water inside the first few inches of the bay carpet.

If there is no way to adjust the doors for a tighter fit then you make a thicker gasket to seal the compartment. you can make your own gasket by improving. How much space is there? how big of a gap? On one of my TT I used some home style foam tape and got the compartment to seal. Another time I acrtually used a section of hose (that plastic stuff form the big box stores comes in several different sizes). then use a good adhesive and glue it to the compartment, preferabley not to the moving part. good luck ed
