No, it's not just the decal. There is 4 large bubbles. Looks like the vacuum bond didn't bond or I already have a water leak.

On my first TT (2010 Keystone) the fiberglass de-laminated causing a couple large bubbles on the left sidewall. Keystone said the fiberglass is bonded with a water soluble adhesive and water must of leaked around the window and I should of maintained the sealant. After they inspected it they decided it was a bad batch of adhesive. Ended up having the entire sidewall replaced. Was very lucky on that one, it was 3 months out of warranty and they covered it.
