Window seal assembly for limiting air leaks from a vehicle frame into a passenger cabin of a vehicle

A vehicle sealing assembly comprising:

• a vehicle frame defining a frame cavity;
• a vehicle door having a door trim panel and an inner frame panel that define a door cavity in communication with the frame cavity;
• an operable window disposed proximate the door cavity and operable between open and closed positions, wherein an outermost portion of the door trim panel extends downward in a direction parallel to a top portion of the inner frame panel and terminates at a distal end surface of the door trim panel disposed within an area defined directly between the operable window and the inner frame panel;
• a beltline seal disposed between the door trim panel and the inner frame panel and in engagement with the operable window in the closed position;
• and
• a first air leak stopper being a separate member from the beltline seal and that is attached to the beltline seal and disposed proximate a boundary defined between the door trim panel and the inner frame panel to divert a flow of air from within the door cavity, wherein the beltline seal is free of direct contact with the door trim panel, and wherein the first air leak stopper extends from the beltline seal to directly engage the distal end surface of the door trim panel.
