Hello, I just got my new Bolt EV 2023 and I'm noticing that there's no weatherstrip gasket under the front hood area. Is that normal?

Part No.6

Could someone who have an EV 2022 or 2023 check to see if there's any weatherstrip of some sort in the front of the under-hood? The water just go strait trough when using pressure washer to clean my car.

I don't see any type of weatherstripping under my hood. (2023 EUV LT) Will get pics soon..

(in the pic, there's a darker part that might look like a gasket, but it's just where the metal is folded over. No weatherstrip at all.)

On the attached diagram, what reference number are you referring to?

Thanks Gary. Must not be needed I imagine.

My 2022 EV does not have that strip either. Looks like there should be something there. Weird.

I wonder if the design is to leave it open for circulation to aid in moisture evaporation, since there is no hot engine under the hood.
