Default Window smashed the rubber seal

The top part of the rubber was smashed and is indented now. Can it be fixed under warranty or i gotta pay?

Bring it back to the dealer and make sure the window is aligned well.

If not, and the rubber keeps getting indented, get it changed. It should be under warranty if the glass is the cause of the rubber being indented.

It will not be covered if it was caused by something negligent in your part...

That's good to hear! Make sure that before bringing it back home that the seal aligns correctly. Sometimes, they fix the seal but don't fix the cause of the malalignment, which can be the glass/window itself...
