In my 1998 Renault Megane 1, rainwater directly reaches the fuse box due to a design flaw in the plastic grille and water drainage channel beneath the windshield. This issue has been ongoing since around August 2022 and, especially during rainy weather, has caused oxidation in the fuses, relays, and wiring, as well as headlight and wiper malfunctions. Because of this problem, I’ve spent around 20,000₺ solely on repairs for the fuse box. Since my car is no longer under warranty, I had to cover all the expenses myself. Renault’s authorized services and customer support did not provide any assistance or solution, claiming the vehicle is an old model. I believe this is a chronic manufacturing defect and request a proper technical inspection and an official statement from Renault regarding this issue. My vehicle’s license plate is 34 JDJ 58.

"About a week after I posted my complaint, I received a call from Renault headquarters, and they said they would direct me to the relevant service center. About a month later, Gaziemir Ermat service invited me to the service center, saw the vehicle, and the next day I was called by the headquarters. They informed me that the issue would be resolved for a very nominal fee despite the vehicle not being under warranty, and they told me to wait for the service center to call me. I would like to thank the Renault officials for their attention."
