They don’t tell you when you buy these things that this maintenance MUST be done frequently and they certainly don’t tell you how to do it. But when you think about the large and heavy components bouncing and swaying down the road - and the use of “lightweight” materials needed to stay within the GVWR - it actually is no surprise that seals and seams would need service. Even regular house windows can need recaulking every few years and they sit still.


Do you have a special technique for these leak checks? Is it more than a meticulous visual inspection? What more than the obvious are you looking for?
