Hah! Nope, that's standard here in south Texas. 110F days means the inside panels see 200+F at times I would imagine. Years of that just destroys the original glue. Happens to just about every chassis. E36 is particularly horrible though. I had attempted to silicon that when I owned the truck when I did the regulator... but as you can see, it came back off when pulled this time. The other side did the same thing BTW.
It can be repaired, but we did not have the time to do it properly. So just threw some more silicon on there and went about our business.
