Mine is doing it. Around the drivers door and the rear door on the left as well. Looks kind of bad- dealer is kinda far away though. Are they replacing them?!?!

Anyone know?!?!

I was able to press mine back on for the rear doors, dissapointed with the seal as seems to be able to come off very easily.

my 2 week old Sport 6MT has wind noise above 45 mph on the driver's side. the weatherstrip around the left rear door was loose, and i snapped them back. going to test tonite for any more wind noise.

taking it to the dealer this weekend for a checkup on the wind noise. i'm pretty sure it's coming from the weather strip.

no issue on the right rear door.

mine is on the driverside door too.
it was peeling off when i picked up the car. made appointment to have it tucked back in. 3 weeks later, it came out again. went to the dealer, they decided that they will replace it. well, it's been 10 days since they told me they were going to order it. still have not heard back from them. Will call them tomorrow and see what's up.

My driver side ...

My driver side door molding came loose at the top on week one. They have ordered a replacement and it is to be in this week. I will let you know how it goes. I will give it a tug before I leave the dealer.

WTF man. this is disappointing. and i'm shopping for this car too.

What's the use if the replacement weatherstrip is the same sh*tty quality?

is there an adhesive that can fix this DIY style?

This actually happened to me within the first few days.

To the people that may or may not buy the car because of something like this:

It's a very trivial problem. It's covered under warranty. If it's a systemic problem (everyone has it) they will issue a recall and fix it at their expense. Don't let weatherstripping, or the odd keyfob problem that seems to happen to 1 in 10,000 convince you to not buy this car.

Think about it this way:

It is an amazing car. It's got the top reviews on all the magazines. Nissan/Infinti has always made great cars. They are all still on the road. So relax, take the few problems you're seeing on these forums with a grain of salt.
