BAD DEGAS TANK

I own a 04 F350 dually w/ 6.0 engine. I have had a antifreeze leak for some time but could never find it. I recently went to Tenn pulling my 36 foot fifth wheel camper and my truck started running hot time I reached the campground. Checked under hood and found the leak. It was a hole in the degas bottle on the plastic nipple the hose coming from the manifold to the bottle connects to. Has anyone had this problem? Wandering if it was just a bad bottle because no moving parts. Any recalls

Same with mine, just kinda 'dry rotted'. I was able to epoxy a temporary fix 'till I got a replacement off the internet. Good luck!
