Default Intrepid Door Seals, locks, headlights, etc.

Is there a fix for the shrinking door seals on the 2nd generation Intrepids. My seals were replaced once at the stealer and they're pulling away from the frame again. What is the cost for new seals? I'd like to know if this issue has been resolved. The other common problems with this car: screaming door locks, rear trunk release and trunk light are inoperative, cloudy headlight lenses and the A/C won't hold a charge. I put in UV leak detector and my fear is that the evaporator is leaking. Howdifficult is it to remove and replace?

Any suggestions are appreciated.

Greg

Anybody? I have those shrinking seals as well. Annoying in the car wash (I'm washing my car, not my hair...)

Thanks for the input. I performed a similar fix without additional material at the door sill. I also used 3M weatherstrip adhesive to hold the rubber in place around the top of the door frame.
