This is my third car. My other two were well over ten years old when I sold them. They still had their original window seals. This car is not ten years old yet, and the seals on all four windows are just hanging there. They actually flap in the wind if the windows are down. There is an annoying whistling when the windows are up. The seal on the moon roof is starting to get loose as well. I am really not impressed at all with this car.
