Consumer Description

THE VEHICLE'S WINDSHIELD HAS BEEN LEAKING WATER THROUGH THE TOP OF THE DASHBOARD. WHEN IT RAINS, THE WINDSHIELD LEAKS ALL OVER. I HAVE BEEN FOLLOWING FORUMS AND IT IS A COMMON PROBLEM IN THIS PARTICULAR MODEL OF VOLVO BUT HAS NOT BEEN A RECALL. IF THIS CONTINUES I'M AFRAID SOMEONE DRIVING COULD LOOSE VISIBILITY IF ITS RAINING. EVEN THROUGH THE CARWASH THIS VOLVO MODELS LEAK WATER. SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE.
