SUNROOF PROBLEMS

[K9sH3]

Anyone else having a problem with the sunroof drip area holding water and coming into the interior? I am going back on the 1st of November to the dealer for the 3rd time on this and I want amo! We just had a hard rain with a front that came through and when I left the house water AGIAN was coming in. So like the Dumbass I am, I open the sunroof and got a free wash me and my seat and steering wheel. How is the water getting in there when the roof is closed?
Ugh!

So far I been lucky and not had any problems with either of my H3's sunroofs.

Hope they take care of it and they get it fixed. Have they made sure the drain holes aren't blocked?

Not experiencing any problems with factory sunroof on my H3. Is your sunroof aftermarket or factory?

It is factory, and the two time before that I went in, I was told it was glog and the tubes are to small. I think that is a BS answer.
How are the tubes getting glog?
My bigger question is how the heck is the water getting in there to start with if the sunroof is closed?
I just poured a cup of water in there to see what would happen, the holes were not draining. So I went over to Amoco and used there air and blew it out. Came back home poured water again and now one side is draining outside and one on the passenger floor.
Ayne other ideas, I will take them all.
Thanks

Post the Month and year of manufacture so we can get a better idea of the time frame the factory built it. Could be a recall issue if there was a bad part assembled into the vehicle.

For example, 09/05 or 02/06, etc.

Located on the inside door jam of the Driver's side door.

My Factory Sunroof needed a new gasket put on because it was not sticking down, and a bubble had caused it to peel back a small amount, but that was it on mine. Built 03/06.

First off thanks for all of your replys.

Here is the date 08/05

Now what do I do?

the dealer still has it, they are replacing the padding for now and making a note about the carpet. The service manager and writer want to make sure it is all dry before giving it back. They are odering a new seal for me, just to be on safe side. They also found that the drain tube was not on, couild have been the problem.
I feel as though they are doing the best they can for me. So I am hoping for the best when I get it back.

K9,

Don't know if this adds anything, but......http://www.elcovaforums.com/forums/s...ad.php?t=20246

I had a leaking problem with my sunroof too. Dealer found and fixed the problem and I have not had a problem since. I was getting water dripping down my back (cargo area) passenger side window, dripping out of the heradliner. Dealer said the drain tubes were not run properly. Apparently there are 4 drain tubes; one runs down the A-pillar (both sides) and one down the D-pillar (both sides). Dealer said one of mine on the back passenger side was not run properly and was draining inside of the truck. Sounds like maybe one of your front ones might be giving you problems, thus water on the floor.

Good luck !!

Thanks FJD!
I ask the dealer this morning about the D pillar and what you had said, He agreed that could also be clog and offered to keep it longer to check. I told him wait for the next rain and see. Plus being Friday I would rather have my H3 back for the weekend.
I am telling you, for a GMC dealer that did not sell me the H3, They go way out of thier way to help me. If any of you live in Central FL and don't like the servoce your getting ( here's my plug) go to Quality GMC in Cocoa FL.
