2012 Cougar Xlite water pump failed
So nothing like driving 3.5 hours to Zion national park, get all set up and discover the Shur-flo water pump on my 2012 Cougar Xlite 28RBS became a No-flo. Finding the pump was fun, turns out it's not sealed in the underbelly, but right next to our bed, inside a carpet-clad plywood cover that's completely screwed down. Had to drive 1 hour each way to Camping World in St. George for a replacement, then find out Shur-Flo only warranties pumps installed as OEM for 1 year but their retail pumps for 2 years. Of course, I bought our trailer 15 months ago. Needless to say I got the 3 year extended warranty this time. Anyone else have their pump fail so soon? We never run it without water. Maybe time to install an accumulator tank to prevent frequent cycling & extend the life of the new pump?
