Consumer Description

WATER LEAKS IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE EVERYTIME IT RAINS. THE HARDER IT RAINS, THE MORE WATER ENDS UP IN THE CAR. THE DEALER PUT THE KIT IN LAST SAT TO FIX PROBLEM, HOWEVER LAST NITE I HAD MORE WATER IN THE CAR THAN ON ANY OTHER PREVIOUS LEAKS. THE CAR MAT WAS FULL OF WATER, AND WHEN I TOOK THAT OUT THE CARPET UNDERNEATH WAS UNDER WATER. AND NOW WHEN YOU TURN ON THE FAN IN THE CAR IT SQUEALS. CALLED DEALER, CAN'T DO A DRY OUT OF THE CARPET OR A REPAIR FOR ANOTHER WEEK OR 2 DUE TO NO COURTESY CAR BEING AVAILABLE. AND WHEN THEY DO THE REPAIR IT WILL TAKE 2 DAYS BECAUSE THE DASH HAS TO BE REMOVED AND IT'S EITHER SOMETHING IN/BEHIND THE DASH OR IT'S THE WINDSHIELD (OR BOTH).*AK
