Default Hi. Need some advice! (regarding rubber around windshield)

Hey. I'm a total noob concerning cars so I need some advice:

See how this rubber piece is detaching from its intended situation(it pretty much reaches further up)? Should this warrant immediate concern? Or can I put off getting it fixed? Thanks!

Mine has the same problem as well as others. Depending on your year, you MAY have this covered under warranty. Some have been turned down. I just press mine back into place.

Oh, thanks. Is it worth it getting it fixed if its not under warranty? I've tried pushing it back in but its pretty dang near impossible for me... D:

Sorry to hear about the issue, but please try the search function before posting:

https://www.clublexus.com/forums/is-...blem-pics.html

https://www.clublexus.com/forums/is-...-coverage.html

Those three threads (and there are a few more) should contain everything you need to know. This should be of concern for two reasons, 1) it causes wind noise at speed, and 2) it allows water to seep in underneath where it's not supposed to.
