"I have a 05 Monaco Cayman 36PDQ and going across western AZ and my radiator developed a leak. Right now am at a repair shop in Quartzsite (been here a week and the build time is another week) when Source Eng. builds me a new radiator."
Something doesn't sound right. You have a 14 year old diesel pusher. They usually come with a very heavy duty radiator from the factory. Why do you need to "build a new radiator" if all you have is a leak? Usually those can be repaired. Pictures would be helpful.
"Are all warranties a rip-off? My radiator springs a leak and somehow it is my fault."
Having your radiator spring a leak may not be your fault. Not reading the terms and conditions spelled out in your extended warranty? That's definitely your fault. Sorry for your inconvenience. Unexpected road repairs are rarely looked forward to. I hope you get it economically repaired. No, not all wholesale warranties are a rip-off, but, many don't cover what you think they do with a cursory reading. Fine print, asterisks, and footnotes are important!
