If one considers the amount of business these black tank failures are bringing to Keystone, Americart and to the dealers replacing the tanks it is no supprise that there is no effort to improve their design. I also had to replace an axle on my 2010 montana and found through Dexter the axel manufactorer that Keystone had them reduce the tube wall thickness of the axel in order to cut cost. They saved $50 per axel. The new replacement axel cost me $1000. This is an example of their transfering cost to the end user inorder to save pennies up front. When RV buyers get the whole picture, perhaps we will be able to demand a certain level of quality. Who wants to spend the best part of their lives in the parking lot of an RV dealer arguing with a large corporation.
