FCA/Stellantis notes: "When replacing any of the door versions it is possible that there will be a slight gap (3) between weatherstrip channel (2) and the inner door panel (1). This includes front and rear doors, full and half door service assemblies. This may be located at the front or rear of the door at the corners, where the weatherstrip channel transitions from horizontal to vertical."

The BRM has a procedure using seam sealer prior to installation to fill this gap.
