Where the roofing material goes under the trim piece is the same seam they didn't seal with mine. That's where I caulked myself. I don't have wrinkles in my roof like you do. I don't understand how caulking that seam will stop the light coming through going by the pic you posted. Try removing the plastic screw cover from the trim to see if there are holes drilled through the trim that need to be sealed.
Should I be concerned? (With light coming through a roof seam in my RV?)

Keep a close eye on the bubling. It could be an indication tht the rubber material is separating from the wood underneath. Is it still under warrantee? If it is, take back to the dealer because that's not right IMHO.

Some light might even be coming through thin areas of the FRP wall.
I have light coming through mine....but on mine the top of the wall is basically the thin skin with no core board or backing, and it's gently folded to round over to the roof. With all my windows blacked out with my reflectix shades, it's pretty dark in there on a bright sunny day, and I can see light coming through in a place or two where the "crown molding" inside isn't tight.
no holes, and knock on wood no leaks
I recon similar to how you can see light coming through the hull of a glass boat
There's probably a void behind your interior trim/panels and so the actual light leak might not be directly inline with what you are seeing.

Ahh, memories!!! In the cabin of my first keel sailboat, during a thunder storm you could see the lighting flashes as clearly as you could if standing on the deck!! Scary.... On my second one, which had an inside hull liner, we did not have that pleasure. 8)
