  Front Seal, Weatherstrip

• Description:

  This is the genuine Ford front hood weatherstrip, cataloged as Front Seal, that mounts across the front of the engine compartment to seal the gap between the hood and the body, blocking wind, water, and road debris while helping reduce underhood noise and engine-bay contamination. It fits 2011 through 2019 Ford Fiesta and installs along the front upper radiator support or cowl area where the original rubber seal presses against the closed hood. Owners replace this weatherstrip when the original rubber has hardened, cracked, taken a compression set, torn, or pulled loose from its retaining channel, which lets in extra wind noise, allows water and leaves into the engine bay, and can leave the hood feeling loose or rattly at highway speed. A fresh genuine Ford seal restores the correct sealing lip and quiet, weather-tight closure. The part is molded to the exact Fiesta contour with the correct push-in retainers or channel profile so it follows the body line without gaps or bunching. Installation requires no special tools: clean the mounting flange, remove the deteriorated strip, and press the new weatherstrip firmly into place along its full length, ensuring the ends seat properly and the hood closes with even compression. As an original Ford component it matches factory fit and durometer, outlasting generic bulk weatherstrip cut to length.
