We have a 2016 Newmar Ventana Has a wind noise in the front dash area. If you put pressure on the top of the dash it will go away.

Any one else has something like this?
 
I had the same problem on my London Aire. If you open the generator compartment and look under where the dash meets the front cap you will probably see a mess of expandable foam where they attempt to seal where the 2 meet. I had to get up in there and do some sealing and I used just clear silicone because the gap was not that big. Depending on the size you might have to use more expandable foam which you can get black on Amazon if you care what color it is.
 
One way to find where the gaps are, in a darkened garage or at night, have someone move a light (flashlight) inside along the suspect area.
You'll be able to see from below where the gaps are.
 
Make sure your gen compartment is closed. Don't ask how I know.
 
For comparison, my 16 Ventana doesnt seem to have this problem, so yours probably would benefit from some additional sealing as per above. My wind noise seems to be primarily from the mirrors and there isn't anything I can do about that other than tune it out.
