What action should be taken if a wind noise persists after resealing?

• A. Ignore it.
• B. Perform adjustment or rework if necessary.
• C. Replace the entire vehicle.
• D. Reinforce with additional sealant without assessment.

Answer: (B)

Persistent wind noise after resealing means the seal and fit still aren’t correct and need verification and correction. The appropriate action is to adjust the glass or rework the seal as necessary. Start by carefully inspecting the installation around the glass: verify the glass is seated evenly against the pinch weld, check that the gasket or weather seal sits flush without twists or gaps, and look for any high spots or misaligned molding. If you find a gap, misalignment, or an imperfect seal, reposition the glass as needed and reapply or replace the seal so the entire interface is continuous and airtight. After any adjustment or rework, recheck the area by testing with wind to confirm the noise is eliminated. Ignoring the issue, over-reinforcing with sealant without assessment, or replacing the whole vehicle doesn’t address the underlying fit problem and isn’t the right approach.
