I came across this little issue today when opening and closing my rear driver's side door. The rubber weather-wind seal rubs on the body, producing a squeak when I open and close the door. When closed, it does appear to sufficiently seal against the body.
The seal doesn't seem to be extraordinarily separated from the door, compared to the rear passenger's side door, but the gap is slightly larger. First image is the passenger side; second is the driver's side.
The truck has 2,500 miles, so while technically it could be a warranty repair, if there is a simple driveway fix (silicone lubricant would probably prevent the noise, but would eventually wear away; it does not appear Ford tack glues these on), I would do that instead of scheduling an appointment, having them check it, potentially deciding to replace it, and then scheduling a second appointment.
Thanks, all. Otherwise, so far, so good, with the Tremor.
