I've noticed a recent development that has me confused and concerned. When towing at highway speed, above 55, the siding at the left front of the trailer expands out up to 2". The expansion is easy to see in the driver's side mirror.
From the picture, the expanding area is in front of the window and up near the top. There were some small (pencil lead size) holes in the front trim silicon, so more silicon was added to seal. But no change after the added silicon. Also checked was the window seal, basement seal, and the roof area and can find no place where air would be getting in behind the siding.
The problem seems to be primarily caused by headwinds - meaning, when traveling at highway speed with a stiff wind from the opposite side of the trailer (side wind from passenger side) there is no expansion, or only intermittent expansion...
Thanks for any advice or direction.
