Door blade pulling away from door at the end, no idea why; think I can save it?

The driver's side is similar, but not as bad. No idea what causes this; probably not as simple as tightening the fasteners. Anybody else encounter this problem?

I would take it off the door, clean out all the gunk you'll find in there... - 5speed6 2008-04-26 09:56:05 (57 views)

Agree; my concern is that the blade is warped / cannot be straightened - I'll pull it this weekend. - Chaddy 2008-04-26 10:26:39 (32 views)

Some patience, and a heat gun can change that. - 5speed6 2008-04-26 10:41:14 (38 views)

Heh, that's what I was considering, just have to watch the paint. - Chaddy 2008-04-26 10:45:38 (33 views)

paint won't be an issue as long as you don't put the gun right on top of the blade.. - 5speed6 2008-04-26 23:32:08 (30 views)

I've got the same problem ... no fix though - richardsc 2008-04-26 09:27:01 (60 views)

Need someone to post image of how it's mounted I guess. - Audeye A6 2008-04-26 09:04:28 (45 views)
