mine never had one(since i owned it),

so when i finally decided to have it replaced the Darn thing popped off when i was sailing down the highway. i heard this rrrrrrppppttttt....then what do i see, but my Darn windshield molding sailing like a kite on my radio antenna. it held on for about 30 seconds then flew off....i guess i wasnt meant to have one.

lol.

well it seems like a common problem then. i was pretty amazed though because it snaps in there pretty good. maybe we should all be checking it out to make sure it is still snapped in once a month or something...

and i'm sure the water came in the car as a result of this. the sunroof was the first place i checked and it's fine. since i put the strip back on i haven't had any problems. i'm guessing that some windshields may fit more tightly than others depending on how they were put in the car.

anyways it wasn't a lot of water and i'm thinking it took all night for it to work its way in. not a big deal i was just wondering if it was a regular thing or not.

Any windshield repair place will have a piece that will work on our cars. My last windshield repalcement used a non-Volvo piece and it looks and works fine.
