Default One more issue with my car... WATER LEAKING!!!

I was going to ask this question to you guys before but keep forgetting it... Also, when I get a change, I will take a picture and try to post it when I get a chance.... but for now, here is the story. When I 1st purchased my car, which was about year and 6 moths ago, I was so happy to get a crossfire so I didn't check the car that well when I picked it up.... I did check for dents and scratches tho...(bought brand new). about year after I purchased my car, my friend noticed long strip piece right on the top of car does not align correctly. It's pushed in towards metal trim around the winshield so it created a small gap in the back. Brought the car in and they tested to see if water was leaking in through that gap and they said water was not leaking in. So they just cleaned the stain for me and they said they can not align that strip correctly because that just how it came out from the factory and if they try to fix it, they are afraid they might ruin the car... however, couple of days ago, it rain hard here in boston and I noticed the same stain at same area....so I called dealership immediately and notified them and have appointment tomorrow..... but not sure what to do if they say they don't know what to do..... any advise?

You might want to change the rear window seal rubber of the hatchback/trunk. I also had a leak that stained the interior roof and demanded the dealership to change the seals. Also, it's a recall issue. I cant remember the RC# but my dealership stated they had a few XFers with the same problem. Them replacing the seal may also bring more attention to the misalignment problem. Good luck and dont take no for an answer. I bet they didnt refuse your money.
