don't remember specifics, but I remember that they were very sneaky about excluding sealing from warranties.
Sorry, I can't add anything to help regarding your seal repair, except well wishes! I have thought about this though, and how in the world I might fix it.
My GUESS
they would go in from the inside, removing trim or whatever is there to get at the bones underneath
then after cleaning the old stuff out, they would like jam some sort of gasket material up in there, perhaps with some adhesive or caulk of some sort...
Again only guessing, but I'll bet it might be a fairly easy repair for a handy person, the most difficult part probably digging through the trim work without breaking it and then replacing it to look nice.
But I do find this interesting.... I hope it's an isolated thing that they will fix. I've not read of this seal being a problem for folks at all, so it makes me wonder....
