If you look at this thread, it appears the door seal is covered under warranty. Maybe the door needs adjustment?http://forums.genvibe.com/zerothread?id=7907

it should be under warranty, unless there is some evidence of abuse, and the factory warranty is supposed to transfer with the car, not stay with the original owner.what is it leaking, air or water?
