Window Leaking in my 06!

Well, I have had the car for almost 2 weeks now and I love it, minus the few things that we have all mentioned..

Well, here is the problem.. I get off the highway (after a 300 mile trip), which was great in the G!! and notice that I have ALOT of bugs and road grime on the car.. so I goto a TOUCHLESS carwash, the one with the high pressure sprayers just to get the bugs and stuff of until I could hand wash the car the next day.. well, my freaking windows leak!! on the drivers side in about 3 places and on the passenger in one. Not a constant flow but water creeps in and then drips all the way down the inside of the window!!!
Anyone else with an 06 coupe have this problem? I will be calling the Salesman today and making an appointment for tommorow!!

it shouldnt be a difficult fix. theyll just remove the door panel and adjust the alignment of the window. at worst, theyll also replace the weather stripping on the inner edge..

Dropped the G off at the dealer for the window leak problem... we'll see what happens later on today..

Here are some pics of my LOANER..
06 Sedan 1300 miles on it. this on was a base model Im guessing. with Sunroof. Stereo didnt sound too good and this one seemed sluggish. And this one had a corny sticker on the back window!

I am GLAD I got the coupe.. driving this feels like a big boat.. IMO

With the windows being seemless, I would think that they are only going to be so water-tight, especially with high-pressure jets hitting the seam/seal directly. I haven't had any leak problems, but then again, mine is only subjected to rain and handwashes with low-pressure flow from a normal hose.

i grab both inside door handles and pull together when the jets hit.

this prevents the water from coming in.
