Wow...Interesting.....
I really don't know whether climatic conditions would cause tape failure...I'm reluctant to think so....as my below freezing garage had no problem in Co nor our Nv home in a hot summer when we have it closed off.
I guess expansion/contraction might be contributory...just never seen it.
Thought occurs to me that early 2000, around when your home was built, was when Pulte was buying Del Web. Although both had a good name among production builders, wonder if something got completed quickly and not up to ongoing standards because of purchase considerations/completions....?
