Just noticed that my weatherstripping isn’t that tight around the windows. Is this normal?

Was it like that was since new or was someone messing with the molding?

That is not normal. I'd take that to a dealer for warrantee work.

Totally normal; mine's the same way.

At that location, the rubber is just a trim ring. The actual door seal runs around the inside edge of the door.

It’s a little warped but is it worth having a dealer mess around with? It doesn’t do anything.

Happens sometimes, nothing more than an eye sore.. Wait for a hot day and fool with it to get it's shape back. Or heat it with a hair dryer and reshape it.

Weatherstripping is not hard to handle if you just want to replace it. The worst part is removing the inner door panel to access any hidden pins. My half doors had two pins that were under the panel. I don't know if full doors do as well.
