OP, sorry you got such a beating on this, but truly sounds like you didn't hold up your end of the deal. All those manuals that came with your trailer, pour yourself a cold one and sit down and read every word of them. Most all here have had more than one trailer and I'd bet that 99% have learned something new from one to another. One of those things is the maintenance required for particular systems. No idea if you're DIY, but if that's not your thing, you should be prepared to pay to have it done according to the manufacturers recommendation - which translates to keeping the receipts in case you do have a problem it proves that you did your part.
You must enjoy camping or you wouldn't have made the investment in a trailer. But.....they require maintenance and plenty of it to all systems. Suggestion is that you just consider this a BIG learning experience, familiarize yourself with all those manuals and if necessary, put it on your calendar.....get bearings checked, get roof/caulking checked, winterize, etc. If you're just plain not a DIY, find a friend who'll give you some basic lessons in the everyday, picky little things that need to be done to keep your investment in good shape. Don't forget to wash and WAX it and DO NOT use a pressure washer.
