My 2000 Chevrolet Monte Carlo ls developed a water leak in it on the passenger side in the floor area coming from under the dash. The car is going to be repaired at the same dealership where I bought it new. I was informed by the repair person there has been similar problems with other models made by GM (Buick was mentioned). It appears there is a defect in an area under the dash on the passenger side where a passenger air filter was supposed to be but not in my car. In that area, rainwater builds up and swells some seals and eventually lets water in through that defective area. I thought it would be worth reporting this since it has been in other vehicles as well. Please let me know if you may need more info or if this needs to be reported elsewhere.

The center plastic console where stick shift is has peeled twice & an employee at the dealership stated to me that he had seen the same problems in corvettes (this employeee dosn't work at this dealership anymore) I have written to the manufacturer & I have a case #04248222 from the cust. Assistance at Chevrolet phone # 800-222-1020 spoke to michael steele on 5/1801 & also jonathan on 1/30/02 nobody seems to know or want to tell me if this is a manufacturers defect it might be the material they are using to finish this part on the vehicle is defective. Once my warranty is up I will have to bear the expense of replacing this plastic center console & it's not a cheap part. I would like the dealership at least to extend my warranty if the Chevrolet company ok's this. I can't be replacing this particular part every so many months indefenetely for the length of the life of this vehicle it's rediculous!
