Just curious if anybody has actually come up with a real fix for vertical window scratches, I've seen alot of posts, but still not sure what to do It appears to be the seal on the very top of the door. as that is the only thing that the window touches where it is scratching. My dealer ordered new seals, maybe when the old ones are removed I'll be able to see what's doing the damage.
Hoping this helps all of our comrades in the SSR arena.
Yes everyone is noticing scratches. Tint or no tint it is still a problem.
The GM goof ups tried to make the windows so tight to prevent the wind noise, that they neglected a small piece of felt on the hard rubber piece that pushes up the window called the "scraper". The fix is "said to be" to have a custom window tinter add a thin tape from I believe 3M, called felt tape, it is very thin, & it sticks to the "scraper" & then the felt on the window side touches the glass. This is the same problem that Lexus & Mercedes has on thier cars with hard convertible tops. Mine is being done next week, check back with me by next Friday & I will let you know how it works. We are unsure until we remove the tint, if the scratches are under the tint or not. Chevy will replace the glass if it is scratched, & they will reimburse me for out of pocket costs to replace the tint, still trying to get the money from them for the application of the felt too. They are cheap, don't want to commit to me, because they know it will escalaate from me to everyone else. If I have my way, I will announce to the entire world, how they screwed up, & how they need to be accountable for it, or maybe they would like a "total recall" on all of the SSR's.
