The car had to go to a windscreen company to be rectified, unfortunately the original screen cracked during removal, which is not unusual so a new screen was fitted. The fitter said that this was the second XC60 he had with the same problem, which he said was due to a poor primer when the car was built. In fact mine was so bad you could push the top of the screen out about 1/4 inch from inside the car.
As I have had the car since new and know it has not been mistreated this is not really what I would expect from a car not yet three and a half years old, which is a shame as I love the car
Today i confirm mine too.
Same car, same model, same date...
My dealer offer me to take it out put new sealeds and glue again.
I ask them what happen if the windscreen breaks?
The answer is "no problem, we break it we change it with new" !
The appointment is for the next week so they have time to order the new sealds and the windscreen (just in case...).
