I had a similar issue with new windshields in my 1978. In my case the glass was too large for opening. After trimming the aluminum around the opening we got it to fit. Your glass appears to not be set in flush with the body. The glass may not be the right size. That is not unheard of....or that is not the correct rubber seal.
Also When I had new windshields put in my 1993 at Elkhart , IN (by a shop that replaces a lot of glass) They required that it set in the shop for 24 hrs. after mounting so that the adhesive could set properly. They fit and look great.
If that is as bad as it appears in your pics I would only drive it as far as a nearby glass shop and have them reset. It is not safe.
       
I have reset the windshields with the help of Performance Glass and did by their instruction and did glue the gasket to the fiberglass. I have let the coach set in my garage and want be using until I go to West Virgina and some of the toughest road in the US. If they don't move then the problem will be fixed. The glass and gaskets were fine I think my problem was no glue was used and totally depended on the lock strip to hold the glass in place.
