Rubber seal under roof rack trim

Postby sgdreamer » Sun Jun 05, 2016 7:45 pm

On passenger side of my 2014 platinum a 12 in piece of black rubber seal comes loose and flaps around at 65 mph or faster. Dealer says must change entire black plastic roof trim and seal as it's a kit. Anyone have this issue or a high speed rattle issue?

The roof trim gasket coming loose is a known issue with the R52. Dealer will fix under warranty.

It just happened on mine yesterday - drivers side - a LONG piece came loose - about four feet - I tucked it back in the groove and drove home. I figured if Nissan won't fix it free, I will get a tube of black silicone sealer, squirt a line of it down the crack and tuck the rubber in on top of it. Should seal it OK -

BUT if they will fix it, that would be better -
