This car has a well known panoramic sunroof leak that causes excess water to enter interior of vehicle and soak both front and rear electronics. My vehicle has this problem caused by recent heavy rains. Car is used to transport children and am worried about mold about front air bags being water damaged.
2017 Volkswagen Golf Alltrack electrical complaints

Panoramic sunroof leaks after 40+ days and counting of repair at vw dealership under warranty. Dealer can't seem to find root cause or not capable of finding multiple problems, or maybe do not want to find root cause. Water leaks into car after rain/snow limits visibility on windshield, electrical problems arise from speakers, door locks and power windows not functioning properly. Location of sunroof leak is also next to side airbags and electrical connections probably causing premature deterioration.
My panoramic sunroof has had an issue with water intrusion. December of 2017 I took the car into vw of pohanka, marylan. They replaced the headliner, drainage tubes, and smoothed out the welds to try and fix the problem. I noticed that the leak is back with water stains on the a-pillar and overhead. The problem is we do not know where the water had leaked into. We are afraid that the water intrusion may cause more problems down the road and do not want any electrical issues due to the water leak. Our main concern is the deployment of the airbags located on the b-pillar and the possible health issues of mold and rust. The problem persists during the rain season.
The vehicle was stationary. Following rain, water leaked into the car from the panoramic roof at the a-, b-, and c-pillars and rear hatch on both the driver and passenger sides of the car. Water dripped from the dash onto the front foot wells. Water entering the pillars could come into contact with pillar-mounted airbags and with electrical controls and systems mounted in the dash.
