If anyone else is having issues with your t-tec fabric staining from water, please let your dealer and Volvo customer service know. I noticed water stains the day after I bought my 2011 XC60. I drove through a drive through while it was raining and the tan t-tec had grey stains where the rain landed.

I took the car to my local Volvo dealer yesterday to have it detailed and they were not able to remove the stains and shadows and said they have seen issues with the lighter colored t-tec getting water marks. This is not my first Volvo with t-tec fabric, but the 2011 t-tec is different than my other Volvo and stains easily from water.

Please tweet @volvocarsglobal and @volvocarsus today to let them know your t-tec is staining from water. They read and roll up issues to review from their social media, and I assume they use that info to fix problems and make their cars even better.
