Dust Problem

My first trip in 178 and going thru rain I noticed water in storage compartments. Found the securing and locking mechanisms were not adjusted to seal from outside. Readjusted to make all tight, no more issues. I had one small area on bottom of Pod that was not sealed - sealed. I'd ensure front is sealed well, because a lot of dust would come from TV. Lastly I would check the roof seal between AC unit and inside. The AC does not use outside air - inside, but the seal could be not secure.

Thank you for all the suggestions - and yep - we double checked everything that we could think of.  Locked the hatch, dead bolted the door, even took many extra measures using tape to seal the the vents, AC, door, and hatch.  Talking with the dealer to see what they think.  

We took our new (gray/blue) R-Pod 177 HRE on quite a few gravel roads with loads of dust without any getting inside.  Everything was closed up including the storage hatches which were locked.  On our 177, the storage hatches don't seal properly unless they are locked. 

It's odd that your 179 did this, I think.  Sure you had the bathroom vent closed tight?

Hello - we are new Rpod 179  owners and just got back from our first trip.  We purchased the Hood River Off Road Edition because we like to do just that - get off road.  We love the camper but had one issue with it and have come looking for advice.
