The fault
How you spot it
The drain channels of the panoramic roof block up or crack, water runs into the cabin, the carpet soaks through, and the electronics in the floor get wet too. It shows up on cars built between 2019 and 2021. A car without a roof is not affected, but a listing does not always say whether a roof was fitted, so you have to look.

Information, not an expert opinion
We write the descriptions, and we put the source next to them. A person reviews them before they go out. They are still information, not a technical expert opinion.
- A fault on the list does not mean the car you are looking at has it.
- A fault missing from the list does not mean the model is fault-free. Write-ups are made model by model. Not all of them are done.
- You decide whether to buy. This is no substitute for an inspection. That needs a workshop and a history check.
