2013 Journey 34B structure issues?

Hello, I am new to this forum. I own a 2013 journey 34b. Lately I am seeing a separation from the trim just in front of the front passenger slide. It started separating at the bottom and is working its way up. This is not on the slide itself rather the wall itself. It appears as though there might be a structural issue. Is anyone familiar with such a situation?

It sounds like an item which is semi common?
Slides are a common item to have a bit of mismatch in our the edges come together and that often leads to some trim item getting pressed to far or too often and it begins to come loose. Sometimes it's on the fixed portion and others it can be on the moving part.
I like to fix it before it gets to be a big problem.
Kind of like a drawer in a cabinet? They sometimes need trimming and adjusting to keep them from totally going bad!

Can you see a place there one item is snagging on another, so that something gets worked loose? I have trimmed the edge of some to allow them to clear and just gone with some form of caulk or glue to reattach the edge or end.
If I catch it before it rips or tears the parts, I feel better! But there have been times when I bought old RV that were ignored for too long and the Piece should have been replaced but it was not practical to even begin to look for a part on those old dogs! Sometimes a tub full of caulk and repainting was left for the next guy to fix!

Do you have pictures? I have a 2014 Itasca Meridian 34B. The Meridian is the twin of the Journey.
