    Windows leaking need advice

    ttps://youtu.be/Oq2FSBXAcYI So while at Md Anderson we had some weather pass through. This was the first time we'd been in a rain storm. I found two leaks. The one in the bedroom was the major one the other was in the back glass in the living area. I called the dealer and got the "we'll have to look at it but GD is a good company. Which I know from previous issues they are. My concern is the water I can't see. What is it getting at and what is it damaging.

    Anyone experience this? Advice on getting this resovled. I don't want to have a warped wall or floor in the future. We've only had this coach since October 2016. . Pics aren't great and I can't upload video from phone. Will try from Pc in a bit

    Any help/suggestions are welcome

    The two common causes are:
    1) a small gap in the silicone around the outside of the window frame or
    2) a plugged drain openings in the lower part of the frame.
    Both of these are easy to remedy.

    Thanks Rob. I plan on checking that once it stops raining. It seems to be coming from around the frame

    I have no idea. I noticed that when the water was coming. Not sure if it's cracked or just the wallpaper coming off

    Sorry to see the water situation. Get to your GD dealer ASAP. The real down side is - total wall replacement around window. We experienced this with a completive product, bubbled wall paper - whole rear wall had to be replaced. By the way the crack looks like a stress crack because dampness.
