Water in Boot!

I think this has been already posted, but i had a read through it and no answer or soloution was given. Thread closed.

Got my GP last yr noticed by December my boot was 5 inch deep in water in the spare wheel compartment, and the boot carpet getting mouldy. Called my local Fiat dealer - Brinkley in Wolverhampton, got the car checked out, they said the rear window needs to be re-sealed and had to await aproval from Fiat. 1 week later the GP went to the dealer for this to be done, they had the car for the whole day, said the car was now sorted and will not leak into the boot again - oh and also they put the old mouldy rear boot carpet back in - was supposed to be cleaned but was still dirty and full of marks where the mould was. Great!

Well you guessed it! The boot is full of water again in the spare wheel compartment, the boot carpet is getting even more mouldy and its is going up the inside part of he carpet actually in the boot! has anyone else resolved this or returned there GP to fiat? I would lke to add also the few other prob i have had, paint work in places you dont see is patchy, trim inside popping off and not fitting properly.

I will be calling Fiat in the morning to book it in again, but i do feel these probs are taking he shine of the car and making me want to return it, what about ater efects of the water all over the boot? rust etc.

Any coments or answers would be great.


Cheers


Oh and i a newbie! The site looks great
