Guest Posted April 21, 2018 Share Posted April 21, 2018 Just noticed a couple of problems with my car as I was closing my door earlier. (added some photos so you can see) 1) The rubber seals have come away from the inside of the door, not fully but at least 2 or 3 inches (on both sides) 2) The black trim that on the frame of the windows seems to have pulled out or bubbled away. I initially thought it may be due to the wind deflectors, but I can't see how, and if it was surely it would be along the whole frame. Anyone else had these issues and know if it's something I can go back to the dealer to sort out? Sent using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mavroz Posted April 21, 2018 Share Posted April 21, 2018 That don't look to pleasant. What year is it? What have you cleaned them or polished them with? Looks like a reaction to something maybe? Has it just happened in the warm weather? Dealer will probably blame the cleaning method, product or aftermarket deflectors. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fiestafox Posted April 21, 2018 Share Posted April 21, 2018 My rubber door seal on the passenger side did exactly the same thing. I noticed whilst in the garage viewing the car and I was told it would be fixed when I picked it up. Their way of fixing’ it was to use double sided sticky tabs. Which obviously didn’t work as it came loose again a few days later. I just used tiger seal so it won’t come away from the door anymore.

Its weird. I think its only happened since warm weather :/ I might have a go at fixing it myself. Sent using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
