Default Roof seal leaks

Jon and/or Phred,

We had a similar problem become surprisingly apparent during a heavy
thunderstorm while camping in Florida. We got home without further trouble.
Our leak was on the front shell seal(between halves). There was a visible gap
between the seal and the shell and appeared as though the seal had shrunk.
Could be common on older TM's like ours(2006) but very surprising for a 2019.
Our fix was simple enough. CW is near but they wanted too much even for a
member. So, I drove past the CW to another RV dealer/service and paid them
$125 to add caulk(lots of it) to both sides of the seal, the roof vent and even
the tv antenna mount.
I don't know if TM Industries has suggested anything about: pulling your two
halves back together, or replacing the seal(s) or both? But our fix was simple.

Good luck.
