Windscreen washer bottle

When filling the windscreen washer bottle the fluid starts to pour out from under the wing before any fluid is visible in the neck of the washer bottle. I've been to the dealer who tells me that the bottle has an 'overflow' and this is how it is designed. This seems unlikely to me. I suggested either a split or dislodged pipe or but as I can't see the actual bottle I can't tell. Any suggestions?

They told me that it was designed that way and all Discovery 5s were like it! They even sent me photos to show me how stupid I am! Thanks for this.

As above its on topix. Not sure what the fix is because not had mine done. It may just be "filler beware". It goes in on Wednesday for some other problems so will mention it. Not had to fill it yet but then ive only had it 6 months
