The problem started 2 years ago and has progressively become worse. The original windshield is leaking water, which drains down inside the A-pillar and windshield. Water also leaks into the air-bag in the A-pillar, and moisture may come in contact with the electronic parts in the dashboard, creating a safety issue and a potential fire hazard. Last year I contacted Tucson Volvo for help, and they referred me to JD Auto Glass (520-370-6599). The local dealer refused to take any responsibility for this safety defect. There have been heavy rains recently in Tucson, and water is dripping onto my lap while I am driving, and trying to wipe the dashboard dry. This causes a major distraction and obstructs my vision, since the water continuously runs down the inside of the windshield glass. Yesterday I contacted Tucson Volvo again, and they referred me to Tony's AutoGlass (520-889-2422). The Owner/Manager of Tony's AutoGlass informed me that leaking windshields are a very common problem with Volvos. I believe this is a very serious safety defect, and am seeking help from your office. Thank You!

A month ago purchased a 2013 Volvo XC60 from a used car dealership. On 12/9/19 the airbag icon appeared which said, " SRS airbag service urgent." Since I live in New York and bought this vehicle out of state in ( Virginia), I called a Volvo dealership near me about the problem. They confirmed that the previous owner that purchased the vehicle had answered the recall and it was than fixed in 2015. I told them if that was the case, than why is this problem happening again, and is 2019. I also explained to them that this appear to be a defected issue with this model since the same problem is occurring again or it was never address properly in the first place by Volvo. This is a safety issue a risk and concern, if I'm in an accident there is a good chance the airbags will not deploy leading to injury or death.

Car leaks water inside, coming from both a pillars.this is where the curtain airbags are located. This clearly is a safety concern. I have done a little research and Volvo of North America where sued in NJ for this type of water intrusion problem. This occurs when it rains and car just sits while parked.
