I bought my EOS in December, 2006. Since then I have had it in the shop at least twice a month. Sure, they gave me a loaner once, but it was not a convertible so I lost out on prime time to drive my convertible. Here are my problems, hopefully I am not the only one with these problems and maybe you can help me tell my dealer what to do with them. My top would not go down - the service dept told me that sometimes I would have to "jiggle" a part on the inside of the hood. My light comes on in the dash showing the tire pressure is low- the service dept. says that it comes on for the least change in air pressure, ignore it. My signal comes on showing error in airbag- service dept says that they had to repair loose connectors. The air inside the car does not recirculate- the service dept says that it does. The silver top on the back which the retractable top sits on is scratched - the service dept says that is where the top sits, there is nothing to be done. The top sides of the car had to be repainted because they were scrapping the sides as the top went down - they repaired it but gave me a small bottle of matching paint to use if it happens again. The back window goes up and then comes back down when I press the button to close all of the windows- I have taken it in over and over, they say it is fixed but it still happens. And of course the leaks are still coming inside when it rains. My last three cars have been convertibles and I have never had these problems! Makes me want to go back to my Chrysler Sebring! Still - I love the way the EOS looks and drive, I just didn't expect all of these problems. Might the dealer offer me a cut on my car notes? |

Replying to: medha (Oct 25, 2007 3:38 pm) Since this topic is for discussing roof leaks, it's a slim chance that you'll get an answer to your question. Although nobody's posted in the Prices Paid discussion recently, people who follow that topic will see your question if you post it there. |

Where can I see the TB's or TT's on the 2007 Eos? I haven't experienced leaks, but it has always been garaged and only hand-washed. I also haven't noticed a creaking, although the radio is always blasting when I have my top down!  I just want to keep up-to-date on it's possible issues. Thanks.

Replying to: qbrozen (Oct 05, 2007 7:23 am) I would LIKE to buy a convertible...and the nicest one out there seems to be the EOS....yet I do NOT LIKE VW ! I have owned a VW Jetta & a VW Cabrio Convertible and I do NOT LIKE HOW VW treats its customers.  However, there aren't any nicer convertibles out there ! (I just don't fancy a seabring, a mustang , a solara, a spyder)
