Need help with weird water leak

We have a 2018 Four Winds HL, which has the rear slide out on the back end for the bed. We’re on the road now and have driven through some pretty severe rain storms each of the past 3 days. On each occasion we found water on the floor around the bed and also on the bed platform after we stopped later.

We can’t figure out where the water is coming in. The overhead vent in the bedroom was dry (and it is covered with a plastic hood), the side windows were closed and seemed dry around the frames. I’m wondering if water standing on the road could be coming up through the rear slider mechanism when the wheels throw the water up and back. But I got down to look under the coach and couldn’t see any obvious gaps or anything.

Has anyone else experienced something like this?

Water is relentless! It might be coming from the roof or the end cap. Check the sealant on the roof and the rear lights (clearance and tail) as well as the gaskets for the slide. A garden hose and spray nozzle-along with some patience can work wonders. Keep at it as water can be very damaging. Good luck
