As noted in Post #8 by statikuz, there was a thread about this wrinkled seam.....however, mine was a later build in Dearborn and is almost perfect (look at link, I posted a picture) so perhaps, since there have been far fewer complaints lately, it was addressed in production changes!? As also noted, it might not LOOK good but as long as the sealant covers the entire area, it is functionally alright....I DO think it was an early production thing.....anyone have wrinkles with a later build!?

Yep. Mine looks like a hail storm hit the seems. This is the kind of thing that getting it "fixed" has a high likelyhood of screwing something else up.

I'm pretty sure the seam sealer is an automated process.
I'm guessing some are wavy because either the truck wasn't moving consistently on the assembly line (pauses), or the machine wasn't moving consistently, or there was perhaps air in the supply lines of the sealing machine.
Or maybe a combination of all of the above lol. Attachment 569680
