2012 v70 wet under passenger seat
 

at 151000 miles, Just found a lake under our electric passenger seat. Footwell has had occasional mysterious wet patches before but never noticed this huge lake before. No sign of any ingress anywhere but windscreen does flex a little at the top LHS. only seems to happen when car is stood...
Other than that, this is one top motor !!

You will notice in the first Video that Volvo UK did say if the windscreen breaks, they are not liable for it. This is because of the nature of windscreens being bonded. Nobody can 100% guarantee removing a windscreen without breaking it, on any car.

These video's are very good and a wealth of information about Volvo Ownership (mostly positive). Thanks Drivelife Channel You Tuber.

Emailed while I was in Somerset. Got an immediate reply asking who my nearest dealer was, I replied telling Volvo UK that it was Volvo Taunton. Upshot of it all was my windscreen was re bonded with no cost to myself a week later. Obviously Volvo Taunton had plenty of experience with this repair as it was handled with absolutely no problems and they knew all about the windscreen leaking problem.

Got it done while I was in Somerset Oct to Dec as to be brutally honest I wouldn't trust the Volvo dealer in N.Ireland with a wind up toy car!

Volvo have just approved mine for a no cost fix too (2011, 134000)

Same issued happening here (2012 XC60 D5), spoke to Volvo UK, they readily admitted that there is an issue which they are aware of and to contact local dealer to have it replaced at no cost.

Volvo v50
 

Good afternoon everyone. I have the same issue with my V50 2009 leaking at the to of windows emailed volvo UK and are just waiting for my local dealer to contact me to arrange getting it in to diagnosis. Hopefully this won't take to long as my local dealer aren't very renowned for there speed will up date later onec I find out more

Windscreen leak, 09 XC60, 208000km dz d5 2.4 turbo diesel.
Very wet here on east coast of Australia recently, initially a bad smell and more recently water dripping from the interior light assembly.

The windscreen moves when the top is pushed gently upwards from inside the car.

Volvo customer service were not interested, told me to take it to a dealer and pay for an inspection

The dealer flat out said no, not interested in any part of helping me. Volvo is a safety focused brand, the windscreen is a structural component of the car and having it fall out for no reason is quite the **** up.

Spoke to Volvo about my 2013 XC60 that has sprung the upper windscreen leak

They said there was no known issue and I should take it to the local dealer for assessment

I decided to just use a local guy here in Cornwall and they did d great job, on removal they explain that the whole top of the screen was not attached to the bodywork

The adhesive was stuck hard to the body but not the glass, they said it was due to no priming of the glass

The guys made short work of it and the car is now sealed 120 quid, for peace of mind I think it is well worth it, it would have e cost me half a days labour and a few quid in fuel to go to my Volvo dealer which is about 1hr+ drive each way

XC60 MY2012 - Windscreen Water Ingress knock on issues
 

Hi, wondered if anyone can advise please.

XC60, SE 2.4 D5 AWD, MY2012. Water ingress at top of windscreen, resulting in water dripping from interior light module and running through black box area behind the rearview mirror. 3 sensors in there I think: auto wipers,city safety and cruise control? Windscreen getting replaced by autoglass (fortuitously?? large stone hit on Saturday).

Amber dashboard Warning lights (but no error codes) and messages for:

City Safety Service Required
Collision Warning. Service Required
DSTC Temporarily Off

Amber dashboard lights for ABS and skidding car within Warning triangle.

Adaptive Cruise Control is not available.

I can only presume water has damaged PCB within the unit(s) behind mirror???

Could anyone advise if I need one of these:

Volvo XC60 2012 Front Radar & Rain Sensor ECU P31295504 ??

If so, any advice or links to a video on how to change it (windscreen replacement might be able to calibrate it ??)

Any help most appreciated.

Should I try Volvo UK? 10+ years old at 107k miles.

Simon

Do you have a sunroof?
I’ve had the windscreen problem (fixed by Volvo UK as goodwill - mostly). Second time around, it appears to have been the sunroof drains blocked - the different symptom was water coming from the internal light cluster this time.
