NHTSA Complaint #10577631 — 2014 TOYOTA COROLLA

SO I LEASED THE 2014 TOYOTA COROLLA S PLUS ON 2/23/14. APPROXIMATELY 2 TO 3 WEEKS LATER I WAS VACUUMING IT OUT, WHEN I LIFTED UP THE DRIVER SIDE CAR MAT IT HAD AN ENORMOUS AMOUNT OF WATER UNDER THE MAT. SO I DRIED IT OUT, WHEN I VACUUMED IT OUT AGAIN A WEEK LATER THERE WAS WATER AGAIN UNDER THE DRIVER SIDE CAR MAT. AGAIN I DRIED THE FLOOR AND I TOOK THE MATS OUT, LET THEM DRY OUT. THEN EVERY MORNING I WOULD CHECK AND WATER WAS UNDER MY DRIVER SIDE MAT. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP THEY THINK POSSIBLY A LEAK IN THE WINDSHIELD. I EXPLAINED TO THEM SEVERAL TIMES, I ROLL MY DRIVER SIDE WINDOW DOWN WHEN I GET IN MY CAR EVERY MORNING AND WATER LITERALLY POURS IN WHEN I START DRIVING. MY ARMS AND LEGS ARE WET EVERY MORNING, IT'S FROM THE MORNING DEW ON THE CAR, IT RUNS RIGHT IN. I HAVE TO KEEP A TOWEL IN MY DOOR COMPARTMENT SO I CAN WIPE THE WATER OFF, SO IT DOESN'T RUIN THE INTERIOR. THE DEALERSHIP HAS NOW HAD IT FOR 3 DAYS, FRI, SAT, SUN TO "DRY IT OUT" BECAUSE THEY PULLED BACK THE CARPETS AND WATER WAS UNDER IT. THEY SAY NONE OF THE TUBES ARE LEAKING AND ALL THE TUBES ARE UNDER THE PASSENGER SIDE ANYWAYS, EVERYTHING CHECKS OUT FINE. PERSONALLY I THINK ITS A DESIGN FLAW, WITH THE WINDOWS SEEING AS HOW THE 2014 IS A REDESIGN. *TR
