Is this important?
I was cleaning up the camper after our last trip and found this rubber strip hanging down under the slide on the passenger side. It seems to be attached to the slide itself but coming detached. It’s pretty tight under there so I don’t know if I could in there to fix it. Ever seen this before?

It's part of the slide seal system and keeps bugs from coming in (and hot or cold air depending on the season) while camping and helps keep out water and road debris while running down the highway. If you're not the type to tear into something like that, I would have a certified RV technician look at it. If your unit is still within warranty, have your dealer address it.
BTW - you can create a signature block with your RV and tow vehicle information (see mine below). That way you won't have to repeat that information whenever you post or ask a question - and others won't have to ask. You can create a signature by going to:

Thanks for the quick reply - and you are spot on. I called my dealer and they told me the exact same thing (almost word for word).
The part is roughly $60 but shipping from GD is $168 because it comes via freight. I got under there and removed enough screws to see that it is not repairable and must be replaced. The cost of ownership I guess.2020 Imagine 2970RL
