New Oliver Back Window Question

[Collier and Joan]

Pick up new legacy 2 at the end of Aug, first night I was looking it over and notice 2 globs of something on the back window. 1 on the left and 1 on the right, what is it and is it normal

They are on our 2018 LE2 also. Only you got a lot more. It’s sealant over these screws.

Thanks, it look like somebody stuck their gum on the window

I agree it doesn’t look good but I guess it’s the best they can do.

I took a look at mine just now, and it has caulking, but only down in the groove of the window. You can't see it without climbing on the bumper to look.

 

I wonder if the caulk is something that Oliver applies or if the windows come from the factory like that.  It seems odd that Oliver would add caulk, since it isn't where the window meets the hull.

 

Bill, it might be the photo, but it looks like the caulk around your window frame is beginning to separate.

Yes I noticed that also Overland and it’s on my To Do list. I have ASI 335 Sealant and ASI 0240 Cleaner on hand, just need to get to it.

Since were talking caulking. I noticed that all the caulking used is developing what looks like black mold anyone else having this type of problem. Bleach water mixture sprayed on helps for awhile then it returns.

Yes I have it also and mine stays in an enclosed shop when it’s not on the road.
