Default Another quality flaw- window molding/seal inside of window coming up
2012GS, have been scratching my head how to fix- without taking door apart, and replacing. Am thinking of poking a tiny hole and squirting super glue, pressing it until it cures. Good ol Texas heat? Arrrgh...

Sell your car for scrap. What a POS.

Never had that problem but am wondering if you stuck a piece of plastic the thickness of the glass and then used a heat gun to re shape it. Just a thought.

I would try a soft heat gun first, possibly make a mold to correct shape, wish my car problem's were that minor. Putting a pin hole may make it look worse. Good luck.

Even possibly a dab of hot glue to pull out the molding to shape.
