Water is leaking inside my 2015 Volvo V60 from the windshield creating a distraction while driving. The Service Rep. from my Volvo dealer said they do no repair windshield seals, only windshield replacement. I brought my car to an auto glass repair shop. After 45 minutes of diagnosis, the mechanic confirmed there is a leak in the windshield seal. The windshield on my vehicle is the original and has never been damage or replaced.

Rearview mirrors do not return to their saved positions after shifting into reverse then shifting back into drive. This will compound over time and shift the rearview mirror positions lower and lower.

Exploding sunroof. On friday 26 jan 2018, at 4:10pm, I was driving in alabama on interstate 65 northbound mile at marker 180 in the middle lane at 70 mph.

wind noise. Glass starting falling through the sunroof shade vents. I pulled over and observed that the sunroof had shattered. There was no other damage to the roof (dents or scratches) or vehicle. I then drove another 4 miles home and took a photo of the damage. I contacted the dealer who said he had heard of this kind of incident before but told me to contact my insurance company. I contacted the insurance company and they will pay for the repair minus my $250 deductible.
While driving on the interstate at approx. 65 Mph, the sunroof exploded with glass blowing up towards the sky. At first, I heard a loud "bang" that sounded like a gun firing and then shards of glass started raining down upon me from above. Shards of glass also filled the rear seat area. If my wife were driving the car, she probably would have panicked, causing an accident involving other vehicles. Also, if there was a car immediately behind mine, they would have been showered with glass shards from the glass shooting up from my vehicle. If a motorcyclist, it would not have been good. The entire sunroof glass that remains is totally shattered. *Tr
