Windshield seal leaking at top. This started a few weeks ago, I noticed water drips run down the inside of the windshield in front of the driver. I took a 4-hour trip last week and it rained for 30 minutes, the leak became worst causing me to need to wipe the inside of the windshield. Yesterday, I went through the car wash and water pour down onto the dashboard, instrument cluster, steering wheel, and airbag. I have to get paper towels and dry things before I could drive. Today, I drove to the grocery in light rain, not a big problem when driving at speed however when going slower or braking water runs down the inside of the windshield. I now carry a small towel to wipe and dry the windshield. This is affecting the visibility and safety of driving the car.

The seal for the windshield has failed along the top passenger side. From the inside of the vehicle, one can push the windshield enough to see a gap. Water enters when raining; I believe this is also a safety issue is the seal completely fails. It started at about 55 months after delivery and 24,000 miles.

Water streaking was noticed on the inside of the windshield in front of the driver's seat. We cleaned the window in case the streak was left from a previous cleaning. During a rainstorm a fresh drip of water was moving down the inside of the windshield. I researched the problem and saw that there are issues with the bonding of windshields on Volvo cars so I pushed on the window lightly from the inside and saw the windshield move about 1/16 inch on both sides. There was little resistance to movement. The car is equipped with sensors mounted to the windshield which serve to maintain following distance to other vehicles and also act as safety devices to avoid collisions with vehicles and pedestrians. This is a safety issue since the airbag pushes against the inside of the windshield when deployed and an unbonded windshield will not serve to hold passenger in place. If the windshield is severely unattached it could come out of the vehicle during operation.
