Windscreen Leak Warranty Repair

[rustedthru]

My two year old MG4 SE has started leaking, with water dripping from the seam between the drivers side pillar and headliner. There's no visible damage to the door seal or windscreen, so I suspect the sealant has failed on the windscreen. Has anyone had similar issues, and success getting this fixed under warranty? I don't want to get this fobbed off as wear and tear.

Also, I've struggled with condensation and frost forming inside the windscreen since brand new - which I'd just accepted as due to weak AC. Has anyone else had similar issues, or is it a sign that the seals have been failing for a while?

On the MG5 there's a pipe which feeds the rear screenwash in the A-pillar with a joint which can come apart especially if it is freezing cold. I would check & see if your rear screenwash is working. Others have posted photos of how to access the joint on other threads on this forum. It may be the same on the MG4.....

Thanks, I saw that issue when I searched the forum. Sadly, no rear wiper on my MG4

My SE is also getting on for two and I've had nothing like this. I do find I sometimes have to fiddle with the HVAC controls to prevent it fogging up, either in very wet weather or (especially) if I have passengers, but setting it to front windscreen fan with A/C always does it.
