Will bad house batteries cause 120v shoreline power issues?

Hi all! I've got a ~2013 Class A that we've full- or half-timed in for the past almost-6 years. It's got 4 Group 24 (EDIT: actually Group GC2 6-Volt) flooded batteries, with a Magnum charger/inverter....

Fifteen years ago we had a brand new 35 ft. motorhome parked in Yuma with full hookups, . We went home for 5 days and came back to a mess. The batteries went kaput and the refrigerator went out. I can't believe everything depends on those batteries, LOL. Since that happened we have 4 AGM batteries in the compartment.
