Had the front window replace a few months ago and today jump in and see water coming in down the center of the window. What can I do to fix this?

:giggle: Yes very true but what's going to happen when I'm at work and it starts raining, also on the highway I can hear the window blowing in loud enough to tick my off.

How often does it rain down there? It's usually pretty dry. I mean it's not like you are in Seattle.
On the other hand, the installer of the windshield should have a no-leak guarantee.

I had this happen last year, ended up with a giant puddle inside the cab and ended up having to tear out the carpet and dry it out. Once I did that, I took it down to the window replacement place that installed the new window and they replaced it for free. Do it soon as I can tell you tearing out the carpet takes quite a bit of work and the foam padding underneath takes a long time to dry hanging in your shower 
Also, watch to see if water is getting into your rear-view mirror w/Onstar. This happened to me and it ended up shorting Onstar every so often and turning it on repeatedly (Onstar Ready on repeat for an hourlong drive is NOT FUN)...and now I've developed a nagging battery drain issue I think is related to that. Just a good heads up to really go through things and make sure it's not causing any other issues

Thanks I got a hold of the guys that did it and they fixed it. Also when I installed my sound system I ripped out the seat, carpet and everything else so I know that pain :giggle:.
