Has anyone had an issue with their rear windshield alignment? Mine is about 7mm below the roofline on the left side and flush with the roofline on the right. Obviously wish I would have noticed at pickup, but wondering if 1) this is a reasonable manufacturing variance, 2) something that can be fixed fairly easily by the dealer. Thanks for any thoughts!

That was actually a very common thing on early production 2015 model Mustangs. I believe the problem was that there was too much sealant on one side compared to the other. Shouldn't be a problem unless it starts leaking, but the dealer should fix it no problem as long as your good with them removing the whole rear window and resealing it.

You don’t want to know

And probably repainting the area around the rear window too. :(

I would drop at the dealer and have them fix it right, make sure take some pictures before leaving the car.

Well, they fixed that issue before mine, but from pics it looks like all the ones built in 2015 (calendar not MY) certainly have that issue.

Also, no I would not get it fixed, too likely to damage the car or not seal it properly when the pull the rear glass and re-install it
