Window Seal 2017 26BH

We got our new 26BH in June, and I've been busy going through it getting it ready for some extended traveling down south this winter. Repairing roof sealant boo boo's by Jayco, upgrading the charger, etc..

So, why didn't I notice the sealant around the windows? Between the window frames, and the aluminum siding, there's black foam, but no sealant of any kind. Is that right? I'm having trouble seeing how that keeps rain out. Especially on the top of the window.

Around the door, there's plenty of what appears to be Dicor non-leveling sealant or similar stuff. Around the storage doors, there's the same sealant on the sides, and some sort of a silicone sealant run along the top.

Anyone have the answer as to how the windows should be, or should have been sealed?

What you have is normal. There is no sealant around the windows from the factory. It's a foam gasket and will likely need to be replaced years down the road after it dries out.
