Leaking A/C on Basecamp 16

We recently bought a 2017 Basecamp 16. Have had a series of minor issues: propane leaks, plumbing leaks, faulty fridge, etc. The latest is a leak from the rooftop A/C unit. Wondering if anyone has any thoughts on solving this issue? Very little rain last night but supposed to get high winds and heavy rain tonight.

Help!

Tell me more about the leak. Where is the water coming in? Are you sure it is the AC or could it be from some other source and dripping down in a way you suspect the AC. Can you take a picture of the place it is leaking? If you are unsure of the exact place it is leaking, some painters tape covering the suspected leak area will help confirm the spot.

Yup, what he said. Need more information.

Could be a simple seal, a drip pan hose connection, or a silly combo of rain and wind. We assume you were not running your AC yesterday? Or were you and then it started dripping?

On the big airstreams we have a tube that runs from the AC in the walls down to the wheel well. Not sure what you guys have on your rig but more information will help people trouble shoot with you.
