Problem overview

Some Volvo 960 owners report experiencing persistent sunroof leaking issues, even after dealer repairs, which can be frustrating. These leaks may occur between the glass and gasket and might not be fully resolved by initial fixes. Owners may find various approaches to address this problem, including replacing the sunroof, the seal, or sealing the existing components. Additionally, it is recommended that drain tube cleaning be part of yearly maintenance to prevent clogs that could lead to leaks. Repairing a leaking sunroof can be expensive, and damages from leaks may not always be covered by extended warranties, although some repairs might be addressed under Volvo goodwill. Furthermore, Volvo has issued technical service bulletins to dealerships regarding customer complaints about leaking sunroofs and the resulting interior damage. In cases where leaks persist despite repairs, owners may need to explore alternative solutions or seek further assistance to resolve the issue effectively.
