Randy, We installed Sanyo's for a couple seasons and I have one job with similar bubbling. The bubbles have grown pretty large, but Sanyo feels that it is not a warranty claim until the module fails. I think that one module with this issue along the frame will eventually fail. But we are past the 2 year warranty of defects at this point.

The bubbles are small perfectly rectangular shapes, smaller than the cell, a few per module. I put an IR camera on it and didn't see any additional heat. I also did an IV test and got good results. Anyone seen something like this that led to a problem. (question mark) My keyboard question mark doesn't work after I spilled tea on my keyboard.
