Having recently purchased a 4-year old Cherokee Tomahawk, I've learned that when it rains, water leaks through the carpeted walls (Outlaw conversion package) on the left side of the nose (just to the right side of the window).  A trailer repair company told me yesterday that those are very difficult to repair, sometimes impossible as Cherokees are not very good trailers (he's seen this problem before in another Cherokee) and that it was probably a bad rivet.  I am now reluctant to spend $$ on attempted repair--and end up with no good result.  The first time I noticed it, I used a wet-dry vac, removing about a gallon of water from the carpet.  Currently management consists of placing bath towels on the floor of the nose next to the leaking area and leaving the mattress propped up so it doesn't absorb the considerable amount of moisture (two bath towels end up completely saturated), then removing the towels when the weather clears.  The carpet eventually dries.  I am calling the Cherokee mfg. plant today for their suggestion, but I'd like feedback from others who have had this problem.   Thank you.

Leaks can br difficult to find. The most successful way to find one, is to pressurise the inside of the LQ using a blower motor mounted on a piece of plywood, whilst temporarly affixed to a window. Soapy water is applied to the trailer's exterior surface, and whenever a bubble is noted, your leak source is located.

The leaks can be found at rivit and screw locations, metal joints, roofing transitions, marker lamps, windows and doors. Anywhere the roofing or sidewall surface is pierced, can effect a leak.
