All I saw on the warranty invoice was the replacement of the seal + labour. :iono:

They didn't follow the TSB. Bummer.

edit: actually, I may have mixed up my TSBs. I can't find the one that specifically addresses that issue. Hmmm...

Ok, here's the best reference to the change in the switches

Did you have the door switches replaced? The main problem is the early switches dropped the windows 20mm. A few months into production they cut the index in half. That cured it.

I will definitely mention that to the service tech. I have an appt next saturday.

Mines doing same, I have an ext waranty. They said take it in and they'll pay only if window is off track. If it's a trim thing they won't. Will only cover mechanical seal breakdown

I don't think the door seal issue was covered in a TSB. My bad. But I assure you the root cause is excessive window indexing coupled with the window itself closing too tightly against the seal.
@stockysnail, how is yours holding up after you updated the switches?

Mine is working great after I replaced the switches and the door molding. I never switched the molding on the passenger side as it wasn't as bad but it's not getting any worse on that side after the switch. Overall I'm very glad I did it.

I got mine replaced a couple weeks ago... all good for now.
