Sunroof leak on passenger side under visor and along pillar.

I had not noted this problem ever before, other than some staining on the headliner that I noted, but didn't think much about. One the day I noted, I left my car parked outside (it was raining pretty heavy that day), went the gym for about 1 hour, and when I came back I noted the roof was leaking onto the passenger seat and the ceiling had a big wet spot. I called the dealer immediately to try and figure out what the problem was. I went to the VW dealer in Fayetteville, NC, and at first they tried and convince me it was a poor seal from the front windshield. This was because I did have my window replaced about a year before due to a big crack.

I proceeded to go to the autoglass store and they checked for leaks, from seal and there were none, but they did notice there was a backup in the drainage through the pillar. I took back to the dealer and they agreed to take in my car. Turns out there was back up in the drainage so the tubing had to be replaced and some minor additional work had to be done to sunroof. When I picked up the car, the rearview mirror was hanging off the front windshield and the dealer did not agree to fix! That is a separate issue from the sunroof, but I couldn't believe they didn't take responsibility for something that happened to the car, while in their service (I had left the car there for about 2 weeks while I was TDY. Therefore, I went back to autoglass now so they could replace the front windshield again since it was still under warranty.
