Could be said a little nicer. Caulking and seals should be checked regularly, at least yearly. But yes, once the warranty expires it is all on the owner unless you can prove a manufacturing defect.

The caulking inside the outside kitchen was full of sawdust and screws. The supports under the bed came loose. In hindsight I wish I had taken it back. Instead of hauling it 180 miles back to the dealer, I just fixed the small things myself, probably a big mistake.
