At first, i thought the seal had just popped off, but as i tried to jam it back into place, I realized something was wrong. The seals definitely shrunk, causing a constant wind noise throughout the car. luckily I did not have any water come in through this seal. I ended up having to cut the bottom and put it back. So now i have a big gap in the bottom, oh well i guess.

After a while, the seals that are located on the car to seal the door shut shrink so bad, that they come of the frame of the car. I did the easy fix - cut them at the bottom side, so I can place them along the edge everywhere else. So now all four seals have a few inch gap to make it fit. It's a cheap car, what can I say! You get what you pay for!!! Let's you know they use cheap materials to make the car. Not to mentions the material on the door frames is chipping off on top of that, and is coming unglued!
