GM vehicles are NOTORIOUS for getting clogged moonroof drain holes. Have spent many times doing interior detailing because of this :facepalm: One reason I'm glad the Ranger does not offer the moonroof, otherwise I would have ordered one and spend the extra time in maintenance cleaning the drains, and cleaning/dressing up the gaskets on a regular basis. :crazy:
Yep - give's me horrible flashbacks of my panoramic moonroof I had in my F-150. Had to maintenance it constantly.

I always just push on the window as it goes down if I need to see out of it. Been doing that on several previous vehicles as well. I think the scrubber mainly seals at full up.

If you go out and look at your “seal,” it’s not a seal at all, it’s felt touching the glass. It’s never going to seal anything.

I haven't seen any in NYC lately so I had to grab a picture from a google search. Couldn't find any really grubby ones.

Weird issue I've noticed since new (15k miles at the moment). The lower window scrubber seals don't seem to have enough tension and won't clear water or condensation when cycling them up and down. Is this by design? Anyone else notice this?

I've never had a vehicle not capable of wiping water off when rolling the windows down. Short time left on three year/36. I want to take it in but don't want to be told it is a "characteristic" of the vehicle. I heard that a few times on our 20 F150 and when they couldn't fix the drive line shudder from a stop on the Ranger.

Ryan, I'm going to merge this with a previous thread on this. It looks like it's by design but there was no real definitive answers yet.
