hey guys we just got his with a pretty big rain storn in the northeast and when i went to my car to go to work i open the door which was fully closed and my drivers seat is SOAKED i look up and the part thats in between the roof and the drivers window is dripping wet what does this mean?

 

Do you have a sunroof? If so it may have been opened just so the back end was slanted up. The sunroof cover will still close when it is slanted, but will not close when the sunroof is retracted into the roof. If you don't have a sunroof, check the exterior of the car for .. uhh .. like a hole or something, I have no idea how else that much water could get into a car.

 

check also the weatherstripping in the door....

 

i think it is the wheatherstripping

 

Awhile ago I had a similar problem with my 89. A mechanic that I trust explained that a sunroof is not intended to be water proof, only water resistant. There are "gutters" inside the area of the sunroof that have drainage tubes. Sometimes these tubes can get clogged. In my particular case I recently had the power antenna replaced and the installer crushed the tube. Hope this helps.
