Rubber door gasket problem


Anyone had this issue? The rubber gasket that runs all around the circumference of the door opening pops up occasionally near the point where my foot comes in/out of the car. It's VERY annoying as when it pops up like this, it has to be re-seated in order for the door to close properly.

Has anyone else had this problem? Wondering if they'll have to replace the entire gasket, or if they'll just glue it down? (seems to simply be a friction fit right now).

(not sure why I couldn't just post a pic...clicked on the picture insert box, entered the URL of the pic, and it would just put an empty box into the message, and then nothing would be there when I'd preview it?)

There should be some white silicone that the factory used to hold it to the frame.Looks like your gonna have to pull that inside panel that runs next to the seat and push the seal back on.
