Not sure if I am correct as I am just repeating something I was told by
a fellow who ran a body shop.
He said not to use silicon to fill automotive seams. He said it will
promote rust.
He said to go to an auto body shop supplier and buy their seam sealing
compound. Comes in tubes like caulking so no more difficult to use.

White Whale water works saga, you may recall, I had sealed the
sunroof opening with tape, and found the water entry only occurred if
the car was parked flat or facing downhill. Park it pointing uphill,
no rain got it.
Tape has failed from sun damage, now I get a couple gallons of water
inside even when facing uphill.
In addition, the sunroof motor blows the fuse instantly.
Car is very rusty and will only be in service a few more years.
Almost 400k miles.
