Wiper problem #1

Top windshield seal leaks, causing water running down windshield, and excess condensation creating visibility issues. Known problem by Volvo USA and dealers.

Wiper problem #2

Windshield seal failure. Water/rain/carwash now leaks into the cabin of the car down the inside of the windshield directly in front of the driver's field of vision, obscuring visibility while driving. This is a clear safety hazard that is well chronicled on Volvo owner-sites. Volvo needs to issue a recall, as this affects the entire p3 platform (s60/v70/xc70).

Wiper problem #3

Windshield loose at top sealing surface per mechanic. Leaks at times during car wash, heavy rain.
