So I was washing my car after a long road trip from south carolina and as I was washing, I discovered that the rubber seal along the top was... well... not very well attached any more. The car itself still seems to be sealed. No leaks ( knock on wood) so far.


Dealership wouldn't fix it under the extended warranty saying trim isn't covered. :( I was wondering how hard that rubber seal would be to reseal and what sealant to use. Or if I should leave this one to the pros. I did a little search on here and found another user had this issue with his rear wind shield and had safelite fix it for him.

Any advice is appreciated.
