SUBJECT: AIR AND/OR WATER LEAK AT TOP OF DOOR GLASS TO VENT GLASS (APPLY ADHESIVE TO SEALING STRIP CLOTH BACKING)
MODELS AFFECTED: 1988-91 REATTAS
Some 1988-1991 Buick Reattas may experience air and/or water leaks between the door glass and the stationary vent window.
This condition can be repaired by utilizing Service Kit, P/N 3635084, which contains 1/3 oz. bottle of adhesive and four nap cloth webbing type sealing strips.

To repair this condition utilize the following procedure:
1. Lower right and left windows at least 8" from the top of the stationary vent glass.
2. Remove any foreign material from the contact surface to the urethane encapsulation material at the top of the side door glass run channel and inside surface of the stationary window.
3. Apply adhesive to sealing strip cloth backing and locate as shown in Figure 1. Tweezers may be used during adhesive application and sealing strip installation.
