2014 — Water in passenger side footwell after rain

Title says it all; have had lots of rain for the last couple of days, and I have noticed some dampness in front passenger side footwell. I’ve got 2014 S, so just sunroof, no pano roof. I’m assuming there’s something blocking the drain from the roof. Does anyone know how to access it on the passenger side? Thanks in advance

There are drains in the sunroof and the firewall. Your issue is more than likely the ones in the firewall, I did the sunroof drains and the issue persisted. Dealer did them all for a whopping 800 bucks even though the sunroof was fixed.

800?! It’s not something I can do myself? Would I have to take off the wheel and in through behind the fender? :/

Under the wipers and air intake for the cabin somewhere. I gave up finding it. Water can cause more issues the longer its in your car. Interior, Rust, Mold, and the #1 electronics.

In your sunroof area if your drain lines are clogged you can blow the lines out with an air hose.
