Yup, clearly a dealer issue and they should be called out about their policy of putting a battery that old in a newly purchased RV. If small claims court is the final solution, I wouldn't hesitate for one second.
I've found that a well worded and constructed letter that uses the legal format for redress of damages holds a lot of weight. You don't need a lawyer to construct a letter like this. Just search on the internet for the correct format and wording, them compile it. The last paragraph of such a letter should ask the recipient to deliver the money and by a certain date, usually four or five business days.
All of the above assumes the dealer is not going to make good with either a new battery or the funds. A phone call to the owner of the dealership may straighten it all out quickly.
