Ours did to jayco sent a bloke to my house he took it off found foam in one of the small drainage pipes up there its fine now ??????
We have the same problem with our truma on our 2014 17.56 expanda had it checked out by aircon warranty agent in Karratha and had it replaced with new one and still does the same he says it is a design fault and that unit should never leak inside a mate also has the exact problem with his and has also complained so we are just waiting to see what happens next
Jayco have put the onus back on to dometic which are the manufactures of the truma so have been dealing with them as well. Have taken photos and pictures to prove it and sent them through aircon shouldn't leak at all and when you fork out $50000 you shouldn't be seeing it. The more people that complain the better. Have heard they are trialling the denso aircon now so maybe they know there is a problem. Will keep you informed when I get more feedback.
mine leaked after we got it using heater.. they said never heard of it before..
We really have not used the Truma since.. Away next week will see what happens

Funny that same was said to us now I have heard of several people with the same problem. Surely the more complaints they hear of they will have to action it.
Ours leaks from around the same place too. It's in for warranty repairs late Jan and this is on the list. Will be interested to see what happens then and how others get on with Jayco/Truma.
We don't use it that often, but when we do we would rather not have a very expensive shower head in the middle of the van!
To me it is unacceptable for it to leak inside the van.

Yes it is unacceptable even if it is a small amount it can still do internal damage so while it is under warranty I will be doing everything in my power to have it resolved. Hope anyone else with the problem does the same. 
I found a puddle in the middle of the floor right under the Truma Air Con on New Year's day after 75mm of rain in a couple of hours the night before. But there was no moisture anywhere on the air con unit. :noidea:
Just been out over the weekend, aircon was leaking everywhere, found that there are intake filters either side, they were linted up, also wasp nests ousdie underneath, cleaned both.. Now has never worked better
What was everyones outcome? We brought a Jayco in the middle of 2016 and its leaking do bad. Jayco are closed over the break. Its hot here in North Qld over Christmas so we cant have it off or we might as well go home. We have almost filled a bucket in 30 minutes. Very unimpressed when we spent $50000 on a new van, our old 1994 model never had a leak or issue
Ours leaked in same spot its not jayco issue its a dometic issue the aircon ...
They sent aircon bloke to my house and he took it off and we had little bit of foam in one of the pipes got fixed put back togeather then after a while it stoped working all togeather another mob came over and put a new aircon on wirks fine now good luck you must ring domitc fibe the nearest aircon people they have on there books or somone who can do it and yes the filters on the side do block up have to take then off and clean them dont break anything
Hi Melissa,
If it is still leaking try this
1. Make sure the filters on either side of the unit inside are clean and lint free.
2. leave the front side of the pop top up, drop the back side, get a hose (it is awkward standing there, easy if you have a ladder) and hose out the back section of the air con, there may be a wasp nest or something jamming the drain area.
I did this and never had a problem since.
Cheers
