Water leak from moonroof and or windshield will short out blind spot monitor sensors and cause warning light in the dash to appear 'blind spot monitor system problem'

Water enters between the two flaps on the capless fuel filler. If temperatures are below freezing the outer flap will freeze. Happens when it is raining or going through a car wash. You can sit there and push in the outer flap and see water streaming out of it.

Water is entering the area between the inner and outer flaps on the fuel filler neck and freezing. Fueling can not be performed until the ice is removed. Water entering this area will also cause fuel contamination in warm months with engine failure.

Water gets in between the first and second flap of the capless fuel filler neck and freezes. This happens when it is raining and the temperature drops below freezing. If the temperature is above freezing the water just sits between the two flaps. I don't know when (stationary, in motion, turning etc) it is getting in there. It happens when it is raining.

Capless fuel filler defect. Water gets in chamber and in freezing temperatures, drainage holes get plugged with ice and subsequent water enters, builds up, creates blockage and prevents flap from opening and vehicle cannot be gassed up. Not being able to put gas in vehicle and being stranded in sub-freezing temps is dangerous to say the least.

Water gets in fuel filler cap (outer hinge) and freezes. Ice dam in the fuel filler area prevents fuel hinge from being opened, which prevents vehicle from being fueled. Vehicle was stationary when I discovered the problem (parked next to the fuel pumps). Has happened on two separate occasions.
