Water has accumulated into the spare wheel well twice causing my ad blue module to be submerged in water, making the system faulty, which then disables the car for use. I have a vehicle that can not start and a repair bill of over 20,000 due to the water accumulation issue. There is a separate recall on other models for this exact problem. This model needs to be included as well.
