Windshield

My 2017 Forza 34T windshield looks like there is a missing sealant/gasket around the sides and bottom of the windshield. Only rubber visible is along the top of the windshield. Does anyone know if this is the design? I imagine it is, it just looks like there should be a window gasket along the perimeter of the glass.

Your windshield is installed just like in a car. There is urethane sealant between the glass and metal frame. The parts you see on the outside including the rubber on top are trim to cover the edge of the glass.

Welcome to the forum. I am not familiar with your coach, but it does sound like part of the rubber molding or trim is missing. On my 03 Ultimate, there is rubber across the top, bottom, and middle (two pieces of glass) with metal strips up the sides.

You might try to view another Forza at a dealership, OR send some pics in an email to Winnebago Owner Relations at or@winnebagoind.com. They would be able to tell you if something is not right.
