Windscreen seal failure

Well, as nobody's ever reported this issue, maybe Bert on the Jimny assembly line (windscreen station) forgot to bond your plastic pieces on properly, because he was distracted by Emily on "wheel arch trim" across the hall, who he's fancied for months.

There is a 12 year anti corrosion warranty, but any mods. to your warranty gives Suzuki the right to reject the claim. From memory it's clause 6.

Is that the Emily who likes to bend over wearing not a lot

Looks like it has happened to 3 other people on this private Facebook group  www.facebook.com/share/p/9HtvkHVbk42t9ate/

We don't even know if they used a pressure washer, it could simply be time, rain and wind pressure, the stuff the front of a vehicle should survive.

99.99% sure they use a pressure washer as I watched them washing another vehicle in the wash area when I picked mine up.

In that group I see someone else said they think it happened because they pressure washed the car too hard so would seem the likely cause but not one you could prove once you’ve driven the car away from the dealer. The other week whilst washing my lcv I noticed a scratch on the wheel arch just a couple of days after it had been to the dealer. Now it could have been anything from someone walking past it at my work or on my driveway, myself when cleaning although I’m very cautious in what I do using new cloths etc or could have been the dealer. Sadly you just can’t prove it or accuse anyone.
