Default Need rubber gasket repair

The rubber gasket around the back hatch of my Ford Edge has a 6" piece that was torn off. I still have the piece that was torn off.
Does anyone out there repair rubber gaskets?

Not something I would try to have "repaired". To me it makes more sense to go to the Ford dealer on 441 and get it replaced.

I would need to see the damaged area, but I have 2 adhesives that MIGHT work. One is specifically for mounting rubber gaskets, the other GOOP is a very good clear contact glue that I have had good luck with. PS My background, I have rebuilt 8 early Mustangs from the ground up, including uninstalling all the gaskets around doors, trunk, etc.
Send me a PM if you are interested.

Thanks I am going to check with the Ford dealer first to see if they will cover it under warranty. Can you send me some contact info please.

I would recommend Village Ford instead of Key Scales.

Sent you a PM, also I doubt Ford will cover a torn gasket.
