slideout opening at the bottom

When I have my slide out pulled in, there is an opening at the bottom and light can be seen. It appears that the bottom slide out seal is not closing all the way. It is Ok when I have the slide out pushed out. Is there an adjustment for this? My unit is still under warranty so it could be fixed by the dealer.

It should be a easy adjustment.

Dealer told me that it wasn't an adjustment issue. The wall (not lamination) was separating from the side at the bottom of the slideout. The dealer has sent pictures to Forest River and is waiting for a OK to fix and how to fix from Forest River. The dealer told me that this was a common problem and they could fix and just waiting on Forest River for an OK.

Has anyone else had this problem and was it fixed to their satisfaction?

Just had a bottom slide seal replaced at Goshen. It closes up the corner when the slide is in. Mine was allowing water to pool on the floor when driving in the rain. Took a tech who knew how to remove and replace 4 screws about 3 minutes to successfully complete the repair. Another job well done at Goshen. Thank you Forest River.
Travel safe
