Default Front Doors pinching

Hey all

Anyone having problems with the front doors pinching the rubber seal along the A pillar running up along the front window? I know that when you push the door open it gets caught a little then springs back at you if your not careful. I saw in Four Wheeler Mag that they had the same problem with a 2002 test drive model but didn't talk about how to fix it.

I had the same issue on my 05 and took it to Dodge and they had a recall on it so they replaced them for nothing, the newer design works great.

Mine wore through on my 04. Dealer replaced with new style seal. Door no longer rubs the seal.

Yup they are all correct, to the dealer!! Make sure to ask for the new design, do not let them put some old stock seals on it.
