Smile water seepage vertical rear window metal inner sill frame

2012 36 RE
i have just noticed that the foam gasket or seal around a narrow vertical window in or near back wall by tv approx 17"x 30" beside the tv has water in the inner part of the metal frame inside, it has water in it after heavy rains it, gasket is saturated

step 1 order gasket or foam seal from tiara? for window, correct?

anyone know or have a procedure to remove replace or repair this type of leak it just started and must be corrected i see to take window out the inner wood trim must come off and unscrew frame etc.

will get on ladder to inspect after i get over being sick from the flu,

a caulk job would be great but my luck is never that good,

anyone dealt with this issue allready or before?

any help is appreciated

We haven't had an issue with this window but our rear window gets water in the frame after heavy rains. We recaulked around the windows and it went away.

We’re having the same problem. How did you fix yours?

I experienced a similar issue during a heavy rain from new. The dealer caulked the rear window which made no difference. I also caulked around all upper clearance lights etc. with no change. I changed the rear roof A/C gasket and haven't had a problem since. May be worth considering....
