Well it does appear that with the water testing carried out by Nissan on our QQ's or SUV's we should never have a problem with water leakage. They spray 24,000 litres of water on each QQ, plus other tests - Dave ;)

...I wonder how they missed the issue with the front sensors then!

I wonder why there are always pools of water on the sills when I open the car doors after it's been raining, then!

Although to be fair it doesn't get past the rubber seal.

It's not too bad in this pic though.

Hound, I think your comment is correct the Testing is for Water Leckage within the QQ and yes you are correct Water does hang up on the Sills.
Steve, regarding the Sensors that is still possibly an ongoing problem, but the testing was from what I understood Internal Leakage. I personally do not have this Sensor problem at present - Dave ;)
