Consumer Description

MY VOLVO XC90 2004, DRIVER'S SIDE GETS FLOODED DURING HEAVY RAIN. DURING LIGHT RAIN, THE INTERIOR WILL GET DAMP. WHEN I START THE CAR, I HEAR A WATER SLUSHING SOUND, COMING SOMEWHERE FROM THE CAR. MY MECHANIC SAID THIS IS DUE TO A VOLVO DESIGN FLAW. THE SUNROOF DRAINS ARE NARROW, AND IT GETS CLOGGED AND REDIRECTS THE WATER INSIDE THE PANELS OF THE CAR. ALSO THE WINDSHIELD DRAINS HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM. I CANNOT BELIEVE A LUXURY CAR CAN HAVE SUCH A MAJOR FLAW. I NEED THE FLAW FIXED, SINCE IT IS THE MANUFACTURER'S FAULT. I AM TIRED OF DRIVING WITH WATER UP TO MY ANKLES-IT IS DANGEROUS! *TR
