Massive Sun Roof Leak

[H3Ray]

Nothing but problems lately with the H3, and I haven't even started modifying it with bigger tires, wheel, winch, etc.
This morning I opened the door to find 3 inches of rain.
I just had the dealer come pick it up.
Dealer advised the head board area is all soggy, floor boards, etc.

Is this a common occurrence?

Thanks

Yes. Clogged drains.

Yes, very common. After the dealer does whatever they do, i would undo the drains and gut them so that water and debris will flow easily through the holes. The front ones are relatively easy to reach, rears take a little more effort.

Mine was horrible, drain tubes and windshield leaks. Even after windshield replacement it leaked. I don't like sun roofs so I used sealant and went around the rubber gasket on the roof, now it is a moon roof. I painted the headliner to remove stains from the water.

All my H3'S suffered from that. Not all that hard to do. Just take your time with the rear interior trim.

Yes you definitely have to unclog those drains brother

I would trade it in?:corn:

What? Trade in, why? Just clogged drains prolly.

Mine did the same thing and Best is right it's a DIY fir sure. Dealer will probably want at least 4 bills and not correct the problem for long term

The sun roof was never made to be water tight. It's designed to let water drain into a tub that runs around the edge of the glass. From there the is a drain in each corner to remove the water. Periodically it's a good idea to check these drains.
