Description of the problem	The passenger side of the car got flooded with water. The dealership found that the leak was from the right side sunroof drain and that they would have to remove the headliner and passenger side interior carpeting to access the affected areas. The $795 estimate ballooned to $1600 when they said that the seating would have to be removed to remove the entire carpet because there was more water that had gotten into the car than they originally thought! This sounds like a design defect in this vehicle! This could be dangerous with the electric power and heated seats!
