What's the WORST design aspect of your vehicle or other vehicles you know of?

For my car (2nd gen Z4), it's gotta be the HORRIBLE rainwater dispersing 'sys' (whatever the term is...). I'm not a technical expert, but apparently this is a common prb and is caused when some seal fails so that water instead of channelling safely away, goes into the trunk behind some panel and can even flood the battery and roof's hydraulic pump sitting underneath the trunk's floor. Can't believe they designed something so flimsy, relying on just some lousy rubber seals. Funny thing is that they thought of this potential hazard and bothered to encase the battery in some foam material and even put the pump on stilts!!! How about saving all that engineering brainpower and just make a simple and effective waterway!
