Record heat in our area and my rails haven't budged a millimeter. Of course I don't have any accessories that constrict the rails expansion and contraction either.
Because, as mentioned above, that battery is for motorcycles and scooters. A auto rated battery is over $1100. That's a LOT of standard battery replacements.

The bracketry mounted on the truck is not allowing the plastic to expand in the heat it normally would so it is compensating in the direction of least resistance.

Two general rules of thumb.
You KNOW the other guy's an idiot so drive accordingly.
Ultimately, YOU are the one responsible for how you drive your vehicle.
It was 7 seconds from the Jeeps turnout until impact. Watch the clock on the bottom. On any of the versions I've watched there's no audio to listen to the engine's rpm so it's difficult to determine continuation of throttle vs beginning of braking.

My drivers door seal took a little time to break in. Warmer weather now will help.
I'd rather have a seal that does it's job but needs a bit more effort to close vs one that has wind noise.
I bought custom leather upholstery from https://leatherseats.com/ for my Mustang years back and installed it myself. If you have a bit of mechanical ability it's not that hard at all.
