New owners are reporting loose or ill-fitting window seals on their [2022 Toyota Tundras](<https://pickuptrucktalk.com/2021/10/2022-toyota-tundra-impressive-enough-to-forget-v8-first-drive/>). Is it a major issue? No. But it does look bad and for owners who live in wetter climates, it could become a problem when water seeps into the door panel where it shouldn’t be. Is this 2022 Tundra window seal issue something we’ll see a recall for in the future?

 

I guess we’ll find out.

 

### What is the 2022 Tundra window seal issue?

 

It seems the seal on the rear windows doesn’t always match up in the lower back corner. It is either too short, coming up and looking loose and sloppy or both. While this tiny gap may not affect the integrity of the vehicle or result in a lot of wind noise or water damage it is frustrating when you’ve just spent $50-60k on a new truck and it looks like shortcuts were taken.

 

What about the seal popping out? If it’s already coming undone at the corner and you can’t push it in and make it stay, will the wind eventually catch that and make it peel back even further? Only time will tell. Hopefully, if it does become a larger issue, Toyota will approve dealer service centers to replace the seal with one that fits properly.

 

What do you think of this loose window seal on the 2022 Tundra? Would this upset you or would you just push it back in and go on with your life? Watch the video then let us know in the comments!
