Default Bad week for Disco.

So far it was so good, but the keyword is WAS. So, last week came back from trip to Boston, it was raining all the way to NYC and parked for the night on the street. In the morning, surprise, surprise, water in the car, dripping from top center console, headliner and right pillar soaked. I guess it's my luck with the cars, in the past I had Jeep Commander leaking from roof like crazy and Volvo XC60 with free swimming pool inside, now I have Disco with shower. Called couple dealers, nearest appointment with loaner is in two weeks and I don't have garage. As a temporary solution, I have covered whole roof with plastic foil, taped nicely with blue outdoor tape and now my Disco has showering cap. Looks funky but the Halloween is over. But there is always next day, yes? Yes, it is, new day new surprise. Someone hit my car overnight leaving nasty scratches all over left fender and front bumper. In two days my car changed from nice to ... We will see how the situation progress.

I suggest check out VIN out in Topix.

I have 2017 HSE and my windshield was replaced due to potential leak concern.

When I bought mine as a CPO the dealer checked my windshield for leaks without my asking him to. So they know there’s a potential problem with some vehicles.

Update, just got call from dealership, indeed it was windshield. They re-sealed it, tested and apparently it is good but we will see. Very fast turnaround, i got the car to dealership on Monday, Tuesday they called they found the leak, fixed and today car is ready for pickup.
