We have a 29RL Reflection. At the bottom of the slide it is not coming in all the way. It sticks out about 2 to 3 inches. The top of the slide comes in like they should. During the PDI at the dealer they said that was normal.
just doesn't look right. It sticks out so far I'm worried about the wind catching it and tearing off the moulding.
Any ideas on how to fix this?

I'd have the same concern about the wind catching it. I have a 303RLS and the slide is ahead of the wheel openings where the wall is straight so I don't have the same issue. Looks like the slide gasket is evenly compressed though so it can't close the gap any more than it is.

It also seems like a lot of sealant on the front section of the wheel opening molding. I would think that would've lined up with the straight wall much better than it appears.
 
Welcome to the forum and congrats on your new camper.

Adjusting the dining room slide so that it's fully retracted top and bottom, side to side are easy adjustments for the dealer to do. The picture you posted shows that it's out too far at the bottom. Unfortunately you should have insisted for it to be corrected before you signed off on the PDI. I had them working on the kitchen slide for the same thing before I accepted our camper. You may as well wait until you've camped in it a couple times in case there's more things requiring attention.
