Well, we had not gone anywhere in the motorhome in several weeks, so last weekend we decided it was time for a trip. We went to the beach close to Galveston, Texas and dry camped and everything went wonderful until we started home on Sunday. We stopped to eat and walk through some shops and then went back to the MH to continue home. While we were eating, it started raining--hard. We had parked out in the shopping center parking lot way out away from the other cars, but the parking lot was not level and the rain ran off of the roof over the windshield on the passengers side. When it finally slacked up enough for us to return to the MH, the whole right front of the dash was wet and water was standing in the storage compartment in the dash on that side (used to be called a glove box). Now it was really raining hard--some places in Southeast Texas got as much as 18 inches of rain on Sunday and Monday. But, it has rained before since I bought the MH and I have had no leaks. My question is, could this leak have occurred because the parking lot was not level and the rig was twisted in some way? Could it be that there has allways been a gap around that windshield and it just never leaked because of the way it was sitting? At any rate, I need to seal the leak off so this does not happen again. Does anyone have any recommendations of what to use to seal the winshield? Another note, we drove back in a pouring down rain and it didn't leak while we were driving, only while sitting in that parking lot. Thanks.
