My 2016 MX's fancy rubber door gaskets are falling apart like a cheap suit! Stealership is telling me to fork over $3200 for new windows because the gaskets are glued on! Are you kidding me?! Anyone else dealt with this nonsense? Any cheaper fixes or workarounds?

From what I understand, if your gaskets are falling apart, they usually need to be replaced, and that can be really pricey. Many folks have reported being denied warranty coverage for similar issues, but a few managed to get it fixed under warranty. It might be worth checking with different Tesla Service Centers for their take considering the crazy cost you were quoted.

You are absolutely right, the gaskets need replacing and it can get very expensive. I’ve also heard mixed stories about the warranty, some got it covered under, others didn’t. It might be worth asking a few Tesla service centers for their opinion, given the high quote.
