There’s a little gap at the bottom left and if I tug on the trim, it’s loose and hollow. I can hear road noise coming in from behind it.

I just wanted to check if it’s safe to caulk here before I fill that gap with a strip of foam, then caulk it off. Ie if there’s any purpose to the trim being loose that I’m unaware of.

Edit: this is the interior.

    Is this picture from the exterior? I’m guessing this is a fixed vinyl (as opposed to wood) window?

    If it’s the exterior, that gap might be for water drainage. If it’s the interior it might be for equalizing interior and exterior pressure. I’m doubtful either is the case though.

    Filling the gap is likely okay.

      This is the interior of a fixed window. Below it is a sliding screen window, then a sliding single pane window, and finally another sliding single pane window.
