Slide windows.

Getting another Problem with My 310 SB. On the Main slide they put 2 windows in the side. The rear window of the slide seal pulls out when the slide open and closes. It is due to the tight rubber seal around the slide. I fixed 2 times took it back to dealer for waranty work they fixed it and it still comes out. I called them they told me to try silicone calking in the seal and tuck it back in. I did this it worked for a bit and came out. I just put even more calk into it and tried it again. I am trying to avoid driving it to the dealer it cost like 70 bucks one way in fuel just to let them fix it. So far so good seems to be stronger this time. Not sure if anyone else had this. If it doesn't work I will be taking it to the dealer.

Have you tried treating the seals with something. Some use Pledge on the seals, others use a product sold for seals and others use Protectant 303. Might help.

Go to the auto parts store and get some 3M Weatherstrip Adhesive. Comes in Black and Yellow. Just make sure you don't get it on anything else. Silicone caulking is not a glue. And then treat your seals with the silicone spray as suggested.

If the seal is so tight that it is pulling the window seal off it is also possible your slide itself may need an adjustment. This isn't a problem you normally see so I'm wondering if the slide itself is too close to the trailer wall there making the seal that tight. Just thinking out loud. Check the opposite end and see if it seems lie the seal is significantly farther away.

Agree with Wild. Our slide seals well, but doesn't pull window seals out.

Both side the same but the diff I notice is the seals are not the same. The front window is different all together.
