Anybody else encountered this?

We bought a 2016 ACE 2016 new from dealer six weeks ago. It has spent more than half the time since then at the shop, and unresolved issues remain.

Among these is furnace failure, apparently due to rainwater getting in. Our first trip out,
The heat worked fine the first evening. The next day we had a moderate but persistent rain. After several hours we put the heat on, or tried. The blower blew air, but no heat.

Thinking that perhaps the battery voltage was too low for the igniter to work, I started up the generator. No help. So I turned everything off. When I checked a few hours later, I didn't even get cold air.

After being parked at home for a few days of no rain, I tried it again and it worked fine.

So we put this on out long list of issues for the dealer. Service department response: "Working at this time." Yeah, no kidding. No rain

So this past weekend, in our backyard, I figured I should try the heat. It was raining and, guess what, no heat. Blower, but no heat. Next day no rain, and heat works.

By now it's pretty obvious what's going on, the question is how to stop it.
