Water leak on front passenger floor

Wahyanstar · 10-19-2019, 01:40 AM

Recently I realized that when driving in rain, the front passenger floor is getting wet. It seems that water is dripping from that place where the bottom of glovebox meets the pillar.

Inside of the glovebox is all dry. Also the plastic seal on the inside of the pillar is also dry.

I wonder if anyone got similar problems & know how to fix it. Thanks!

The roof drain is clogged. Try unclogging it from under the car.

Tell your friend that the OP hasn't logged on in nearly 3 years so their answer could take a while

I use compressed air with a hose. Takes all of 30 min. Start at the top they are located in the corner. I use a small drain snake on the rear drains. I have to do it 1 or 2 times a year. I bought the snake from harbor freight0
