NISSAN 72717-VC000 Windshield Lower Rubber Seal

This genuine Nissan (OEM: 72717-VC000) windshield lower rubber seal is a factory-quality component that ensures a perfect fit and seal between the windshield and the vehicle body.

Function and Importance

The primary function of the windshield lower seal is to prevent rainwater, moisture, and debris from entering the area beneath the windshield, the engine compartment, and the vehicle's ventilation system. A properly sealing strip protects interior electrical components from corrosion and short circuits, and helps reduce cabin noise levels by minimizing wind-generated aerodynamic noise.

Signs of Wear

Because the seal is constantly exposed to the elements (UV radiation, freezing temperatures, high heat), it degrades over time. Common signs of failure or wear include:

• Drying out, hardening, or cracking of the rubber material.
• Water leaks and dampness beneath the dashboard or in the cabin footwell area.
• Increased wind noise or whistling sounds during high-speed travel.
• Detachment of the seal from the windshield glass or body panels.
