Thanks in advance!

When you remove the belt line, I think you will find that the side sheet has been somewhat damaged and or discolored by the belt line moldings.
That molding would only pull away if the trailer has been subjected to severe vibration, such as caused by a super heavy duty tow vehicle, and/or excessive rated hitch bars, and/or a bad axle/axles, or a combination of those.
That molding "does not" fail by itself.
