Hey guys so I bought this baby used and was wondering if the tailgate window is supposed to look this separated from the tailgate or is there a way to adjust it so its flush? Noticed that the corners of the glass are not really touching the rubner molding too much butnthe center is, either way no water leaks at all. Any comment would be helpful.

That definitely doesn’t look right. Is it actually latched when it’s sitting like that? Can you lift the glass without pushing the button?

Did you try and push hard against the glass right at the latch to see if it will go in further?

What does the latch in the liftgate look like when you open the glass?

Yes the glass is latched on, It doesnt lift when you try to pull it up, only opens with the button. The glass can be pushed in deeper but doesnt stay there.
