is your g waterproof?

Well mine isn't the car is less that a week old. Took it for the first no touch car wash, and water came in on the driver side where there side mirror is. Right beside the side tweeter. So i was a little surpirsed when I got sprayed right in the face. Not a lot of water came through but enough to get my worried.

Anyone else have this problem? I am taking it to the dealer next week.

Sounds to me like the window didn't 'seat' itself properly.
It was either that or the rubber weatherstripping was kinked which left a hole for water to go thru.
How about the window isn't aligned properly and goes up skewed.
Any of these will allow water to enter.

It shouldn't be hard for the dealer to fix.

give it a good 70-80mph run and everything comes off..

also when your traveling at 5-10mph (stupid california traffic).. while its raining you can hit the brakes and watch all the water that was on top of your car go down your windshield..
