Panoramic sunroof leaks water into interior, causing condensation on all interior glass and making it difficult/impossible to see out. There is so much condensation that AC/defrost settings cannot remove it in a timely manner. It takes so long that one tries to drive even before full outward vision has been restored, increasing risk greatly.

2017 vw golf alltrack: have had this car for four months now and just had three days worth of rain here in michigan. The front of the headliner is completely soaked on both a-pillars and around the overhead console of the vehicle. Dealership said it was more than likely welds that didn't get smoothed down and therefore pinch the tubes that drain the trough in the sunroof area not allowing it to flow back into the opening in the car. In other words, vw sold me a car with a known defect! Now I have to turn my car in for some unknown amount of time, have them tear the inside apart, take the car to a body shop and have the body shop grind the welds down smooth, then install a new headliner in the car. That's all great (not really), but water is incredibly destructive, so what about the water that's run down the a-pillars and gotten in to the insulation in the doors? Or the water that ran like a faucet out of my overhead console this morning when I started driving that dumped all over my electronics and transmission column? What about the possibility of water that won't be looked for in this apparent fix of a known problem that then turns into black mold that I and my family breath every day for the life of the car?! This has to be corrected as there is no way this car should have been sold to me and my family with a known defect.
