After having my roof fixed and leaks repaired on my car 6 months ago i thought maybe all the troubles were over, yeah well it sounded 2 good 2 be true.2wks ago got in my car drove off when i slowed down i got soaked, leak was back again thru the catches. Booked it in at a dealers said they could do it the next day. Carried on drving my car that day, next thing i knew it was then pouring thru the interior light. Took it straight to the dealers and left it with them. They called the next day to say it was all fixed they said it had been tested and had not leaked, the sun was shining so the roof went straight down so i could drive home an enjoy. About an hour later clouds started getting rather heavy so went to put roof up, and oh what a surprise went half way an then stopped. Messed about with the micro switches and managed to get it to work took it straight back to dealers showed them the problem switch, said they will get it done ASAP. The next day they phoned to say it will take 2-3 days for the switch. Booked the car in for a weeks time, day before it was due in i telephoned them, what a surprise the switch hadnt arrived, said they will call back and let me know. left it at that and waited and waited and waited and waited got no reply. Telephoned again the next day, they still had no idea were the switch was. This went on for 2 weeks. In the mean time i washed my car and ended up with 2 paddling pools in the back seats. DOES ANY OF THE DEALERS KNOW WHAT THEY ARE DOING... I dont think so.

Me and my car now have a love hate relationship. I think its more hate than love.

after the dealer fixed the leak in my 1st CC that was only from the catch on drivers side - i got similar to yourself.

i got the car back and drove the 45 miles to work. not long after leaving the dealer the rain started to pour down and i had water pouring continuously from the seal breaks front and rear and BOTH sides although not at the interior light.

i also had paddling pools behind both seats but only noticed when the dealer got the car back a few days later and i had to fish for my insurance documents that i had left on the floor.

also hate to disappoint you but if you followed by rejection story you will remember that complete new seals failed to fix the leaks.

on a brighter note i remember being so angry at the paddling pools that i went hunting for the after sales manager and more or less dragged him to the car to see the state it was in :lol:

Peugeot are putting all their parts into production, means if you need spares there's one hell of a wait. You can see their logic, they make money from new car sales, lose money from warranty work. Not sure of the ethics of the situation though.

Well I'm sure if everyone started taking taxi's and presented their invoices to peugeot for payment they might sit up and take notice.

Depends on the dealer and on how much fuss you kick up.

if you will remember I had the 'Peugeot CC Expert' try and fix Melanies roof leaks (the one who left the next day to work for VW - say loads doesnt it).

Anyway, I digress, the leaks werent cured and it seems that there is now a leak forom the interior light area. This was not present before the fix. See the Rejection section for FM51 VMJ for more details.

So they are just BULLSHITING you all and CAN NOT fix the problems.
