Volvo V70 windscreen problems - what could it be?

I have recently purchased a 2011 Volvo V70 D5 privately. It has 65,000 miles on the clock and a full Volvo dealer service history. It was only recently serviced by a main dealer six weeks ago. I have noticed that the seal at the top of the windscreen has failed, I can push the top of the screen out approximately 5mm and it is letting in water. Is this a common problem and do you think I have any leverage with my local Volvo dealership?

Might not be Volvo's fault. The car might have been fitted with a replacement screen and that would explain it. No previous reports: www.honestjohn.co.uk/carbycar/volvo/v70-2007/?sect...d.
