Outside Door Weatherstrip - Multiple Concerns
Some 2013 – 2014 model year FR-S vehicles may exhibit multiple concerns from the Outer
Weatherstrip (belt molding).
The cross section of the weatherstrip has been revised to limit the amount of water passing into
the door. If the felt attached to the window stabilizers/guides accumulate water, the vehicle may
also make noise from the stabilizers/guides during window operation. In some cases, the felt on
the stabilizers/guides may freeze to the window or detach from the plastic backing and damage
the window.
Symptoms may include:
• Noise coming from the weatherstrip during window operation, especially when wet.
• Loosening of the weatherstrip from the door.
• Inversion of the weatherstrip during window operation.
• Noise from the stabilizers/guides during window operation.
• Scratches on the glass from worn stabilizers.
