Description of the problem	The vehicle started to collect water without my knowledge in the car. It was only until a unnoticeable noise came from the rear of the car. I inspected it and the rear area was soaked with water. So bmw thinks it is a good idea to store alot of electronic equipment in the rear were the water was. They first claimed that it was possibly clogged drains and that if they were clogged, that nothing would be covered under warranty because it was "an outside force". After the inspection, they tell me that a leak was discovered and that it was fixed. But nothing was covered under warranty because water got into the car. They had the same problem with older models and due to it being a bad design of the car, refused to acknowledge that it was their problem. I read that there was a settlement back in 2010 area and that they were found liable. The car has not changed since then and they are still using the flawed car design in the x5. I was told that to avoid further leaks, that i should not park it anywhere near trees or bushes and preferably inside. A car in the 21st century should not have to be kept inside to prevent leaks from occurring. A lot of people dont have the privilege to keep their car in a garage 24/7. Some people have to use their cars on a daily basis.
