Consumer Description

I STARTED NOTICING THAT WATER WAS SOAKING THE FLOOR MAT ON THE DRIVERS SIDE OF THE CAR AFTER IT RAINED OR I WENT THROUGH A CAR WASH. I TOOK THE CAR TO A REPAIR SHOP AND THEY NOTIFIED ME THAT THE BOTTOM OF THE CAR IS NOT WELDED PROPERLY FROM THE MANUFACTURER, SO THE SPACE WHERE IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN WELDED TOGETHER HAS LEFT HOLES ON BOTH SIDES OF THE BOTTOM OF THE CAR. THESE HOLES PROVIDE AN AREA WHERE WATER LEAKS INTO THE CAR AND CONTINUOUSLY SOAKS THE FLOORS. THERE IS ALSO INFORMATION FROM GM THAT STATES OTHER 2010 CHEVROLET EQUINOX CARS HAVE HAD THIS SAME PROBLEM, SO IT IS CLEARLY A MANUFACTURING PROBLEM.
