I am wondering if anyone has experienced the widow seals shrinking in their MH and what if anything was done.

The seals that are shrinking, ( due to age, I suspect), are the one that secure the glass inside the frames. They are pulling loose in the corners. I don't think they leak yet, but probably can be a potental leak, particlarly if they pull further out. It is happening on the larger windows. The MH is 13/14 years old.

Has anyone had this happen? If so, what can be done about it short of replacing the total seal?

Thanks, Jerry
 
The "seals" you refer to are likely decorative in function.  Most RV glass is actuallly sealed in by a bead of some type of sealer between it and the body opening with the plastic trim added afterwards.  You can replace the trim if it is bothersome.
