Windshield properly sealed?

I was reading in another post about a windshield being unproperly sealed is cause for louder wind noise when driving. The wind noise on the higway is fine for me in my 04 screw but I have noticed some cracking and chipping away of windshield sealant. I see it mostly along the top part of the windshield where it meets the roof. Has anyone seen this or heard about it.

I haven't heard of an issue like this. I know that, quite a few MYs back the Rangers and some F-series had some minor water leakage going on, but other than that... its new to me...

That little search function at the top of the page works wonders...
