Consumer Description
FOR SEVERAL YEARS NOW I'VE HAD TO DEAL WITH A DEFECTIVE WINDSHIELD. IT LEAKS WATER INTO MY CAR AND ON ME WHILE I'M DRIVING. THE WATER TURNS TO MOLD UNTIL I SHAMPOO IT OUT. IT AFFECTS MY VISIBILITY DRIVING. I'VE TRIED TO GET IT FIXED BUT I WAS TOLD IT WAS MY SUNROOF. THE SUNROOF WAS TESTED AND IT IS NOT LEAKING IN THE VEHICLE. THERE ARE MULTIPLE FORUMS OF HUNDREDS OF PEOPLE HAVING THE SAME ISSUE. I WORRY IF I SPEND 1,000 ON A NEW WINDSHIELD THAT IF THIS IS AN OEM PROBLEM IT WILL LEAK AGAIN. THIS ISSUE HAPPENS BOTH DRIVING AND STATIONARY. BUT IN THE MEANTIME I WORRY ABOUT MY FAMILY GETTING SICK FROM MOLD IN THE CAR EVERY TIME IT RAINS AS WELL AS WHEN I'M DRIVING MY VISIBILITY. VOLVO NEEDS TO BE RESPONSIBLE FOR RESEALING ALL OF OUR WINDSHIELDS FOR FREE AND REPLACING FRONT CARPETS. I AM NOT EXPERIENCING ANY ELECTRICAL ISSUES WHICH IS GOOD.
