A question about the bubble above slide out. Could I drill a small hole in the side to see if there is water in there, and if so make hole bigger to drain??
There likely isn't water in there anymore but swollen, wet wood so drilling probably wouldn't help.
I agree. I would first investigate where roof meets side. Depending on how it's constructed, removing the sealant and corner molding from the outside is where I would start, because I'm guessing water ingress caused the delam. Also, can you observe the inside of the wall for swelling?
If it's not wet but the outer skin is just not glued, then glue it and compress like others have said. If the wall is wet and wood has swelled, let us know and you may get some further suggestions.
