THE REAR WINDOW MOULDING IS MELTING AWAY FROM AROUND THE WINDOW. WE BOUGHT THIS CAR BRAND NEW ,AND THE MOULDING SHOULDN'T BE COMING OFF THE WINDOW. WE KEEP OUR CAR PARKED ON THE CAR PORCH, SO IS PROTECTED FROM THE WEATHER. WE BOUGHT OUR OTHER CAR BRAND NEW, AND IT IS A CHEVEROLET CORSICA BACK IN 1987 AND WE DIDN'T HAVE ANY PROBLEMS WITH THE MOLDING MELTING AWAY FROM THE WINDOW. I FEEL THAT I SHOULDN'T HAVE TO PAY FOR HAVING THE MOULDING PUT BACK ON, AND THE CAR IS ALMOST PAID FOR. THAT DOESN'T MAKE SENSE; YOU BUY A CAR BRAND NEW AND YOU TAKE CARE OF IT AND YOU STILL HAVE UNNECESSARY PROBLEMS WHICH SHOULD HAVE BEEN TAKEN CARE OF BEFORE IT LEFT THE ASSEMBLY LINE. *AK
