Rear Window Rubber Seal Problem

[junka]

The top rubber seal of my rear window is oosing rubber adhesive from underneath it due to the heat of the hot weather. Has anyone had this problem :ranting:

If so, did you get fixed under warranty ?

That is very odd I have never heard of that, the only thing is has the window been replaced, because the adhesive they use dries instantly. And yes if your under warranty you will get it fixed.
Are you sure it is not rubber surround the glass?

I have had windows refitted to my VS and the bonding adhesive is touch dry.

mate, had what I think was the same problem with my SV6, took it down to the dealer and got a 'Naaah, its nothing, probably some tree sap or something.
Only got it in one top corner.......cleaned it up and it didnt happen again up to when i traded it.

mines the same when i took the car home and had a good check of the car after purchasing i thought it mustve been replaced or something,mine doesnt ooze tho i think mines the actual sealant thats bn bogyd up.not very professional looking at all.

hhahaaa, im not alone. mine seeps from the top left hand corner, i just run a blade along it and clear it off. I asked my mate at holdens and he tells me its "normal". go figure.

I had a look at my brother in law's VZ Lumina and it too has the leaky adhesive at the left and right corners of top window seal, like mine.

Looks like a Holden design flaw, unless tree sap strikes at the same place on two seperate cars, I doubt it:whistling

same problem here, you are not alone.

Yes that sounds very sloppy workmanship, but as you say just cut it off with a knife. I have watched them put windows on they put the glue on first then press the glass onto it.
