Official summary
Some 2013 ? 2014 model year FR-S vehicles may exhibit multiple concerns from the Outer Weatherstrip (belt molding). The cross section of the weatherstrip has been revised to limit the amount of water passing into the door. If the felt attached to the window stabilizers/guides accumulate water, the vehicle may also make noise from the stabilizers/guides during window operation. In some cases, the felt on the stabilizers/guides may freeze to the window or detach from the plastic backing and damage the window.
Vehicles covered
What a TSB means. Technical service bulletins are repair guidance manufacturers send to dealers — they are not recalls, and repairs are not automatically free (warranty extensions are an exception worth checking). The full document is available via NHTSA’s vehicle lookup.
