Tiny gap between A-pillar and window

Anybody know how to fix this? There is this tiny gap between the window and a-pillar. The wind noise gets pretty annoying at higher speed.

I have already tried:
-Re-indexing the windows
-Adjust the 2 bolts underneath the door that push the glass inward or outward

What year is the car? Isn't there a 5 year on the body? Take it to the dealer if you are still under warranty.

That is a huge gap. Your either missing a trim/weatherstripping or your door is out of alignment. I would 100% have the dealer troubleshoot. Body adjustments are not trivial.

Looks like something a good body shop should tackle (or a trusted mechanic). Good luck getting that fixed.

That's not a gap, that's a vent!

It looks like the weatherstripping is getting caught as the door closes. Notice how it is making contact higher upper and it looks like the door trim is catching on the seal causing it to squeeze towards the inside of the car. As others mentioned, have the dealer handle it.
