Driver side cowl is warped?

Anyone know how to fix this? It's in the driver side window where the window meets the A pillar


Warped cowl/ weather stripping

Pull out the stripping and reset it, if the a trim pillar plastic is warped then you will have to get a new one.

No unless someone got weather stripping sealant on it from a window repair.

move it with your finger, perhaps going in or out of the car, you moved it with your hand unknowingly. it doesnt look like the plastic piece is warped, right? only the weather strip trim.
