    The rear window slider, when slid back open, then back to closed again, causes the rubber gasket/seal to roll off and twist up in itself.

    Anyone have this problem and if so, what did you do to fix it?

    First of all, your thread title is hilarious.

    Secondly, I see you have an '08 and my suggestion would be (assuming you're still under warranty) to take it to the dealer. I had the same problem and the dealer fixed it lickety-split.

    ah yes... It's usually best to get a rubber of the proper size for the hole in question.

    Try some of those spam emails we always get to make your unit bigger and let us know how that turns out. Hopefully, after working on your unit you can keep your rubber from falling off.

    I hate twisted rubbers as much as the next guy so have you tried jamming something in there to hold it in place? Or maybe some rubber cement?

    I honestly can visualize wtf you're talking about anyway... Guess I've been spending too much time away from my truck. :(
