Angry Anyone go through a touchless car wash?

Well my car was extremely dirty the other day so i thought id run it through a touchless car wash since rain was in the forecast all week. Well it was a bad idea, after about 5 minutes in, i feel water dripping on my arm and i look up and surely, the sunroof is leaking. It doesnt leak during rain but it shouldnt leak in a car wash either. My old maxima, after 11 years, still doesnt leak in a car wash.

Anyone else encounter this problem? I dont know if Infiniti would do anything about it, i guess ill try calling them Monday.

Sounds like the drain may be clogged. I would think that your dealer can take care of this for you under warranty.

Stupidly, I used one - because I was really short on time, and it was REALLY cold out. Nothing leaked, but my license plate was bent beyond belief. I have a rippled bent up plate now. Pretty ghetto. Good thing replacement's on the way.

Same thing happened to me so the dealer gave me one of those chrome Infiniti license plate frames to prevent it from happening again. Not pretty but at least it keeps my plates safe haha!

I don't think you used a "touchless" wash like the poster asked.
