NHTSA Complaint #10246694 — 2008 GMC ACADIA

WATER LEAKING FROM SUNROOF - LEAKS FROM BOTH AIRBAG AREAS, ABOVE SUNVISORS AND THROUGH SEATBELTS. HAVE SERVICED TWO TIMES AND WILL BE GOING BACK A THIRD TIME THIS WEEK. FIRST OCCURRED 6 DAYS AFTER TAKING CAR OFF LOT, THEN AGAIN 1 MONTH LATER AND NOW 18 DAYS LATER (EACH TIME IT HAS BEEN IN THE RAIN). FIRST TIME, TOOK OUT WINDSHIELD AND REPLACED, THINKING IT WAS LOOSE SEAL. SECOND TIME SAID THE STRIP AROUND THE SUNROOF WAS FLAT AND REPLACED IT. THIS TIME THEY THINK THE FRONT DRAINAGE TUBES ARE NOT WORKING AND ARE BACKING UP INTO THE INSIDE AND LEAKING. THE MECHANIC RODE WITH ME AND COULD FEEL THE WATER PUDDLING UP IN THE SUNROOF. I AM AFRAID THE WATER WILL CREATE MOLD AND MILDEW, AS WELL AS GET INTO THE ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS OF THE VEHICLE. THE WATER POURS OUT OF THE FRONT SIDES AND ONTO THE STEERING WHEEL AS YOU ARE DRIVING. *TR
