This part of my windscreen rubber surround is loose against the bodywork and already collecting dirt + dust underneath, Can someone confirm if it is supposed to be stuck down? It doesn't make sense for it to be collecting crap and water!

Thanks

It is not supposed to be unstuck. Dealer should be willing to redo under warranty. If your a DIY person can buy automotive windshield sealant. Just make sure do do under entire length of the strip.

My dealer fixed that issue for me at no cost.

Mine's unstuck along its full length and will need a good clean out before re-gluing as it's full of silt from the plowed fields around us!
