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?

water, it just streams in at the top rear curve of the door. i looked at the seal and it looks good.

what i am about to tell you is top secret, ancient bodyman secret, shhhhhhhhhhh,put your window down, place your knee on the top of your inside door panel, grab upper part of your door and pull gently. this should elimate your leaks, if not repeat as needed, KEY STEP: roll window down!!
