Within 4 months of getting our 2020 28 BHS trim pieces all around our unit started bubbling. The repair solution from grand design is to cut the foil wrapped trim and replace the sections with new tape/foil. Has anyone been successful in injecting glue into the bubbled areas with a syringe to tack them down? At first it was just the trim inside the cabinets bow its around our door frames too.
 
Gosh. This is a tough one.

I think I'd first press GD to send new trim pieces. I don't think they should peel at all let alone after 4 months.

If all else fails then I would make a small slit in the bubbled ares and inject some glue (not a lot) into the bubbles and press them closed.

It's so hot all over the U.S.; any chance you have it in storage and the temps are really high which might exaggerate the problem?

And reqs for glue syringe? Tried a rubber cement one and it didn't work

I think I'd just use some Elmers white glue or some other general purpose white glue. Rubber cement won't work well in this situation.

Maybe heck a hobby store to glues and syringes.
