I can't say what I really think about them shipping a brand new 2015 model with these kinds of issues, I would be violating the rules....
Hope they get this all resolved to your satisfaction, FunPilot.

Ditto. I would be furious.

When I finally fully taped the two windows around the outside frame that were still leaking, it looked like the leaks stopped when I used my garden hose. But I have been optimistic doing that before only to have mother nature show me otherwise. I will try to get them to authorize a local RV repair shop to caulk all the windows for me.

Funpilot's leaking windows
Boy Funpilot, I'm sure eager for you to resolve your leaking window problem (and any and all former 'bugs' you've encountered with your new TM).
I, too, have encountered more than my fair share of 'bugs' with my new TM. After a year+, I sincerely hope I've remedied all the epidemics I've been plagued with. Truly, my best wishes for both of us going forward. Honestly, I want so desperately to "love" my new TM (my very first), if it will just let me!
Regards,
WingedRyder

Thanks for the moral support. TM has approved my taking the trailer to a local RV repair facility and having them recaulk everything they can. This facility is so popular it is backlogged until mid-February but I think I will wait based on the feedback from customers that I have talked to.
In talking with Ed, he says they intentionally do not caulk the roof seam black flange (or whatever it is called) on the part where it wraps over the side-walls as they want it open for any water to leak out on the outside if there is a roof leak. Since I may have stopped the leaks by simply taping the edges of the 2 windows still leaking, I am inclined to leave that possibility alone for now. Ed is quite mystified as he has not seen this kind of problem on a new TM before.

I would expect to hear some kind of scientific explanation for how the water got suctioned upwards thru the bottom edges of the corner trim, assuming they mean the corner trim between the horizontal/downward curved roof and the vertical side walls.

Just making sure that I did not make anyone think I was able to duplicate the water being leached up (yet).
