Water leak

Have a 2020 Winn view 24d. What is appropriate caulk to use over the two little windows over the cab bunk. Suspect may have leak especially window on passenger side as bank curtain is slightly damp on bottom.

If you're still under warranty, the appropriate caulk is whatever the Service folks at your dealership/point of sale, use to repair the problem.
If not, contact Winnebago Owner Resources by email at

Include the year/make/model and your VIN and/or WGO Serial number, if you know it. The VIN is the most important piece of info for them to help you.

Under warranty till 10/16/20. Not worth returning to dealer for this. I can still wield a caulking gun . Had already back to dealer for two water intrusions in same area. SILICONE???

No idea. I would suggest contacting Winnebago OR before your warranty runs out and ask them what to do. They may send you to another area dealer or instruct the dealer that's tried twice how to fix it, or ask them why it's still leaking.
That way, if this becomes a major headache down the road, and it sounds like it's headed that way, you'll have a benchmark inside the warranty period, where you reported the problem to Winnebago corporate Owner Resources, and asked them what to do, and a paper trail to support any damage or repair claims, going forward.

This is the reason why we didn't upgrade from our 2018 to the newer VS30 chassis and Navion, because the cab over bunk was not optional. When we ordered our 2018 we deleted the cab over. They are the most common water intrusion location on almost all class C motorhomes.

Dicor is the name you are looking fro as it is the "standard" but then there is a choice. One type is called self leveling and made for flat horizontal like roof vents as it does creep and level itself, while the other is non-leveling and made to stay where you put it on vertical.
Sounds like you need the one for vertical? One source here:

But shopping price or easy to get is really worthwhile so don't just grab the first ad!
Wal-mart also carries it!
