Exterior Faucet/Shower Hose Compartment. Holding Water

I have a 2018 Classic.

Have recently discovered the exterior water faucet/shower hose compartment to be holding water which I suspect is the failure of the stainless compartment door gasket not sealing properly enough to stop penetration of wind driven rain water or even water when washing my trailer.

I know for certain that the faucet is not leaking either under city water pressure or when using the 12v onboard water pump. Furthermore I've checked the interior backside of the compartment and confirmed no leak of either hot or cold water pex tubing to the faucet connections nor any signs of water in the wall insulation below it or the flooring. All of which leads me to thinking the gasket on the compartment cover is not sealing properly.

Curious is anyone else has encountered this (water retention) and if so, how did you address it?
